"Inadvertently painted. Keepers of the Ivanovo hill" Automatic translate

The Gilyarovsky Center, a branch of the Museum of Moscow, begins a large study on the theme “city in a city” with the exhibition “Carelessly painted. Keepers of the Ivanovo Hill ”, which will be held from January 31 to February 16.

The exhibition is based on a photo project by Dasha Karetnikova. For the third year, she explores the Ivanovo Hill, this “city in the city”, where artists, restorers, and thinkers live.

The inscription that gave the name of the exhibition - “carelessly painted” - Dasha Karetnikova once saw in Kolpachny Lane on top of dried paint. Then she met the same inscription in Starosadsky, Podkopaevsky lanes, on Pokrovka. Not finding the authors on the Internet, Dasha decided to call her series so.

Among the heroes of Dasha’s photographs are Nikolai Avvakumov, restorer, founder of the Khitrovka Foundation; Igor Bely, director of the Hyperion bookstore in Khokhlovsky Lane; a resident of the house of Golosov in Podkolokolny lane; a philosopher who appears to be a descendant of the Queen of England.

In addition to photographs, the exhibition included artifacts from the archaeological collection of the Museum of Moscow, found, including, on Ivanovo Hill.

Opening of the exhibition: January 30, 19:00. Free admission.

The exhibition will feature lectures by architectural historians, art historians and local historians about Moscow. The program of events will be announced separately on the Gilyarovsky Center page on the Moscow Museum website.
