Thank you, Robert. The gallery is indeed remarakable and I'm made it the topic of my post for today (March 19, 2006).

Unfortunately, during the Soviet period, in this country Russian artists were almost un-known highly under-appreciated. However, lately there has been a boom in interest of Russian art, and it is astounding what that country has to offer. The show at the Guggenheim had quite a hand in that, and also there was an excellent show last spring at the Smithsonian in Washington D.C.

You’d never expect it, but one of the largest collections of Russian art in the country is at the Robert Garren Galley in Georgetown, Tennessee. Come check it out: http://www.garrengallery.com

doug, thanks for the link. There’s some beautiful work there.

Obviously there is a lot to be investigated and discovered about Russian art on the web, both for personal pleasure and future posts. I love it! Thanks, all!

Pavel, thanks for the links. There’s some really great stuff out there. It’s too bad Google’s page translation feature doesn’t do Russian to English. I didn’t think to use Wikipedia to look up Russian Painters in general, it’s quite a list. The propaganda art is a hoot, but some of it is really quite well done.

Jeff, thanks for the nice comments. Wow, you're right about Shiskin: wonderful landscapes. There are also some other good links on your post.

Strangely enough, the Springville Museum of Art (Springville, Utah; about 45 miles south of Salt Lake City) has one of the largest collections of post-Revolution Russian art in the western United States.

This is a link to an album of some fine art pieces which are stored in Russian museums. Unfortunately, all names and comments are in Russian.
