Tomorrow, participants in the youth course ‘About Art Here and Now’ will embark on an exciting journey to the Artsvit gallery’s storage facility. Our collection curator, Viktoria Nikitina, will be their guide to the world of art.
At the workshop, teenagers will learn how works of art are preserved, get acquainted with the works of artists, and see with their own eyes the various artistic techniques that masters use to embody their ideas in works of art. We will talk about the phenomenon of collecting and its exciting experience.
