WINZAVOD - Moscow Contemporary Art Center
|
Located only 15 minutes by car from the heart of Russia the Kremlin this former winery is now the heart of the country's burgeoning contemporary art scene. Once filled with the intoxicating aroma of wine, today it is filled with the heady excitement of creation where the new history of Russian art is being made.
Winzavod consists of seven buildings with a total space of 20,000 square meters (215,000 square feet) located on privately owned, gated property. Four of the country's most prestigious contemporary galleries moved here as soon as the space was open: XL, Aidan, M&J Guelman, and Regina. And five more galleries have recently opened: Proun, Atelier #2, Pobeda, Fotoloft Gallery, and Gallery.photographer.ru. Winzavod is also home to artists' studios, a photography studio, an advertising agency, an avant-garde clothing store, an art supply store, and a stylish cafe.

Press on Winzavod
“The newest addition to Moscow’s
thriving contemporary art scene is
Vinzavod, a 200,000-square-foot
exhibition hall in an industrial
section behind the Kursk Railroad
Station. Though still a work in
progress, it is already attracting
some of the city’s most prominent
galleries. Imagine SoHo way back
when.”
The New York Times,
