Winzavod Contemporary Art Center

Winzavod Center for Contemporary Art is the first and the largest private contemporary art center in Russia which unites galleries, educational programmes, studios, workshops and showrooms. By bringing together all areas of modern culture in one space open to a wide audience, Winzavod supports contemporary Russian art and creates a comfortable environment for its development.

On the basis of Winzavod, the Foundation for the Support of Contemporary Art was created, its strategic directions are New Names, Urban + Art and the Art Market. Now the New Names direction includes the Open Studios project, as well as the New Names online platform. Urban + Art is an initiative to support, research and develop contemporary street art in Russia. In the context of this direction, the world's first and only biennale of street art, ARTMOSPHERE, is being held.
