Museum of the Saint Petersburg Avant-garde

#1

The museum of the Saint Petersburg Avant-garde (Mikhail Matyushin’s House) is located in a two-story mansion on the Petrograd side of Saint Petersburg. The mansion was built in the mid-19th century. For many decades, this house was inextricably linked with the cultural scene of Saint Petersburg — Petrograd — Leningrad.

The permanent collection of the museum demonstrates the main stages of the formation of the avant-garde culture of the 1910s–1930s. It displays books, manifestos, photographs, personal items of Mikhail Matyushin, paintings and graphic works of his family, as well as those of Aleksey Remizov, Nikolay Kulbin, Vladimir Sterligov, and representatives of the schools of Kazimir Malevich and Pavel Filonov.

The exhibits help to understand the phenomenon of the Russian avant-garde, which placed great importance not on the creation of artistic works but rather on the process of creation and the creator’s way of life and personality.

The museum’s collection consists of a section dedicated to the avant-garde before and after 1917 and a memorial section dedicated to Mikhail Matyushin and his wife Elena Guro.
