moscow store of contemporary culture

24/01/2010

The Moscow Store of Contemporary Culture is a research project which looks at ways to reinstate non-monetary value in relation to contemporary arts in Russia. The Collection strives to bring about the sacralisation of contemporary culture in Moscow society and integrate Russian contemporary culture into the world community.

The new building (design-in-process below) will house the art collection, main store, reading rooms, writing rooms and altar gallery.
