Yegor Zaitsev Solo Exhibition: "The Shape of Fabrics" | State Historical Museum

Mar 4–Jun 1, 2026 (UTC+3)

Moscow

Exhibitions

Fashion historians describe Yegor Zaitsev as a fashion designer imbued with existentialist thought, exploring global questions of existence in each of his new works: freedom, loneliness, the meaning of life, and death. Zaitsev's work is conceptual, containing multiple layers of meaning and profound interpretive space. He uses structural, functional, and decorative elements to express his reflections on human fragility, the dangers of the external world, social threats, and ways to resist them. Dresses and coats transform into flowers and crystals, giving the human form a surreal shape. Clothing evolves into highly dramatic and complex imagery, acquiring new meaning and form. This exhibition showcases 12 looks, their complexity and multifaceted nature breathtaking. Some elements of these garments were designed and made independently, while others were shaped and integrated into the overall design. The exhibition also features videos for four of the looks, revealing the secrets behind their designs. For Yegor Zaitsev, there are no technical or creative barriers. He personally selects the fabrics, is intimately familiar with the manufacturing process, and possesses a deep understanding of the beauty of the human form. Most importantly, he has an artist's mindset—conceiving compositions, shaping forms, and creating images. His artistic legacy extends beyond clothing, encompassing sketches, prints, and poetry, all of which are exhibited alongside the ready-to-wear pieces. The exhibition also features studio videos and performance footage, focusing on figures, movement, and space—all essential for a more comprehensive view of the designer's experimental work. Yegor Zaitsev's creative vision resonated with the Russian cultural context of the late 1980s and late 2010s, and with the global fashion industry of the 20th and 21st centuries. For a fashion designer, clothing is a way to engage in dialogue with the audience, expressing his ideas, dreams, and concerns. His relationship with his father, Vyacheslav Zaitsev, not only laid the foundation for Yegor Zaitsev's passion for the ultimate expression of craftsmanship and ideas, but also taught him how to collaborate with designers, engineers, and technicians in the fashion house, posing challenges and innovative problems they had never learned in textile academies. The studio effectively created a method for realizing Yegor's visions. But his unique perspective on the world, transforming it into stunning images, was likely inspired by his mother, Marina Vladimirovna Zaitsev—also a fashion designer, a graduate of the A.N. Kosygin Moscow State Technical University like her husband, an abstract artist in E.M. Beryutin's "New Reality" studio, a production designer for the Bolshoi Theatre (located on Vernatsky Prospekt), a member of the Moscow Artists Union since 1975, and awarded the title of Honored Artist of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic. Egor's artwork also incorporates street imagery, contemporary film, literature and music, as well as his personal life experiences.

"Humans are just humans—they love money"—Special Exhibition at the State Historical Museum of Russia | State Historical Museum

Mar 18, 2026–Jan 18, 2027 (UTC+3)

Moscow

Exhibitions

The exhibition, "People Reflect Their Character, People Reflect Their Love of Money," explores a key theme in Mikhail Afanasyevich Bulgakov's novel *The Master and Margaret*—money as a force that tests humanity and reveals moral choices. In this work, money is not merely a detail of the era, but also a significant artistic image, permeating the narrative threads of both ancient times and the Soviet Union. This exhibition will guide visitors through monetary artifacts from two periods: the Jewish region in the first century AD and Soviet Moscow in the 1920s and 30s. The exhibition includes a section dedicated to ancient Judea, showcasing locally minted coins and Roman-era currency, and exploring the region's tax and financial systems. The centerpiece is a display case containing "Thirty Silver Coins"—four-drachma silver coins from Tyre, traditionally symbolizing the price of betrayal. A section on the 1920s and 30s explores the currency reforms of 1922-1924, the issuance of Chernvonets banknotes, the state's gold and foreign exchange policies, and the operations of the Torgeshin Shop. The exhibition displays all the major types of Soviet Chernvonets banknotes from 1922 to 1937, allowing visitors to trace their design evolution and connect real banknotes with scenes from the novel, including the famous Variety Theater scene. The exhibition also features rare Torgeshin Shop sales orders. Besides coins and banknotes, the exhibition also includes items that convey the atmosphere of the works. The highlight of the exhibition is the "Writer's Studio," which displays Bulgakov's personal belongings and a 1966 issue of the magazine *Moscow*, in which the novel was originally published.

Nicholas I. The Ideal Autocrat | State Historical Museum

Sep 17, 2025–Jun 22, 2026 (UTC+3)

Moscow

Exhibitions

The exhibition features over 260 items, including personal belongings of the monarch. Particularly noteworthy are the collections of military uniforms, portraits of members of the royal family, and works by Nicholas I's key aides: A.Kh. Benckendorff, S.S. Uvarov, M.M. Speransky, and I.F. Paskevich. Nicholas I was known for his love of painting and his patronage of the high art; he himself was a highly skilled artist. This exhibition will display a self-portrait of Nicholas I, as well as a painting by his favorite war painter, A.I. Radurner. Notably, Radurner's painting depicts the Preobrazhensky Guards' approach to the Winter Palace on December 14, 1825, and this painting was inspired by a pencil sketch by Emperor Nicholas I, who was also a key participant in the event.
