PIR EXPO 2025 and Baranow Art Gallery – Contemporary Russian Art in the Hospitality Industry Automatic translate

Autumn 2025 will be a time of dialogue between contemporary art and the hospitality industry. As part of the PIR EXPO exhibition at Moscow’s Crocus Expo, a special curatorial project will be presented, demonstrating how artworks can transform hotel and restaurant spaces.

Dialogue of two worlds

Autumn 2025 promises to be exciting for anyone following the development of contemporary aesthetics in public spaces. The PIR EXPO exhibition, which will take place at the end of October at Moscow’s Crocus Expo, will feature a fascinating dialogue between the worlds of art and the hospitality industry.

Artists changing space

The BARANOW ART GALLERY International Online Marketplace booth (booth 4G150, Hall 15, Pavilion 3) will feature a selection of works by contemporary Russian artists, including recent pieces by Vyacheslav Gayun, emotional canvases by Ivan Korshunov, and the multifaceted works of Nikolai Reznicenko. Also on display will be the philosophical and metaphorical paintings of Valery Baranov, the authentic compositions of Anton Kolokolov, and the deeply realistic works of Oleg Podgorny.

Art as a creator of atmosphere

The exhibition is conceived as an exploration of how art can create a unique atmosphere — from intimate and meditative to vibrant and energizing. Each work is selected for its potential to transform a space, whether a hotel lobby or a restaurant interior.

Professional Dialogue: Art in Hospitality

The exhibition’s business program includes a session titled "Art + Hospitality. Art Hotels as an Effective Marketing Tool," scheduled for October 28. Participants will discuss how artworks can become an integral part of public spaces. The discussion will cover various collaboration formats, from creating permanent exhibitions to organizing art events.

"It’s interesting to observe how the perception of art in hotel and restaurant spaces is changing," notes one participant in the upcoming discussion. "Today, it’s no longer just a design element, but an essential component of the atmosphere, creating a memorable guest experience."
