Art in Russia
ARTINRUSSIA was founded in 2011. A division of The School of Russian and Asian Studies (SRAS), ARTINRUSSIA is dedicated to helping artists develop their personal practice through the educational opportunities of Russia and Eurasia. Our team of consultants and advisers draws from their years of experience on the ground inside the art circles, museums, educational institutions, and creative life of that geographic region to create extraordinary study abroad programs, faculty led tours, and travel assistance services. Our mission is to make the rich heritage and current innovations of Russia and Eurasia open to more students, professionals, and art enthusiasts.ARTINRUSSIA's website additionally serves as a platform for publishing student writing about art in Russia and Eurasia, and for informing the English-speaking world about Russian artists (especially contemporary Russian artists), museums, exhibitions, scholarships and more.
