VERA MUKHINA
19 November 2009 - 15 March 2010
The Benois Wing
The monographic exhibition,
that is dedicated to the 120 jubilee of Vera Mukhina shows the retrospective of
the many-sided art of the eminent Soviet sculptor: from the early projects to the
monumental works by the mature master. For the first time along with many sculptures
at the exhibition there are shown print graphics and applied art works from the
collection of the Russian Museum. The exposition includes the great collection of
the art works, connected with theatricalities: costume studies and sketches
of the stage design (generally for the performances of the Moscow Chamber Theater
under the direction of A. Tairov). Several little known posters with the portraits
of the figures of the world cooperation are presented at the exhibition for the
first time. For these posters were used the drawings by P. Pavlinov, designed by
V. Mukhina.
