I wanted to share some exciting news with you about a new festival called "Red Garden", which is a collaboration between GUM and the "Archstoyanie" festival.

Now, you may be wondering what to do if Moscow aren't 300 galleries like there are in London (although I must apologize in advance as just reading that name might make your teeth grind). Fear not, as there are still plenty of amazing art experiences to be had. Today I want to share with you some stunning land art photos from Red Square, including the mesmerizing "Red Forest," as well as two captivating sculptures by Sasha Frolova that were displayed near the New Tretyakov Gallery. Speaking of which, the location for Sasha's sculptures couldn't have been more perfect, as the lawns at GUM were already cramped with tables and trees, making it difficult to find space for installations. However, the organizers of GUM Red Line have promised to showcase the sculptures throughout Moscow in the fall, so keep an eye out for them!
The "Red Garden" exhibition will showcase works by famous Russian artists who are expressing their modern ideas and visions of public art. The exhibition will be designed by the architectural bureau Wowhaus and will feature geometric shapes, flower beds, lawns, and paths in the spirit of classic gardens and park ensembles.
After the exhibition is over, the artworks will continue to be displayed in public spaces around the city and residential complexes of the general partner, INTECO. Some of the artworks will also be displayed near the Bosco Manufactory in Kaluga and in the Nikola-Lenivets Art Park.
As part of the festival, you can also catch the first solo exhibition of Nikolai Polissky in Moscow, called "Russian Antiquity", which will open on July 21 in the GUM-Red-Line gallery. The exhibition will feature wooden sculptures of Nikolai Polissky and Nikola-Lenivetsky crafts, which refer to classical basic architectural elements such as columns, bases, and architects.
I hope you'll check out this amazing exhibition and enjoy the beauty of public art!
