Russian avant-garde:

the fist&the second

The Gallery's collection consists of about a thousand paintings and more than a thousand works on paper by Russian artists. Works that cost more than $300 000 are not represented on our website. They can be inspected in the Gallery by special appointment. We deal in museum quality artworks that are supposed to be verified with the use of the whole apparatus of art expertise (consultations with leading art experts, chemical analysis, documentary evidence of the provenance). We are perfectly sure of their authenticity, that lets us draw a contract to ensure the security of the collector.

For many years the Gallery conducts the search for estates of underrated and undervalued artists that have investment growth potential. Exhibitions , catalogues and educational activity change the attitude to the artists and help them find their place in art history. For a long time only specialists knew works by Pyotr Galadzhev, Fyodor Fyodorovsky, Lado Gudiashvili. Now their art is firmly established in the collector's sphere of interests. Auction sales result show that these artists belong to the segment of rare and expensive art, while 8-10 years ago their works were moderately priced.

In 2007 “Old Times” Foundation for support of arts and culture has begun the implementation of a joint exhibition programme in cooperation with State Tretyakov Gallery . The goal of the programme was to show work by little known modernist artists and to ensure their well-deserved status.

International confederation of art and antique dealers (ICAAD)

and Redsquare architects

are also the partners of the Gallery.
