Images of women in the history of art have always been able to provide a glimpse into the true ideals of a people or culture. The exhibition ‘Madonnas of the Far East’ will showcase some of the creative talent of Far Eastern artists and their exquisite perspective, as illustrated in images of women. The exhibition clearly shows that every region has talent and reminds us once more of the importance of recognizing, appreciating and supporting emerging artists on the road to global acclaim.

Primorsky Stage of the Mariinsky Theatre (20, Fastovskaya Ulitsa, Vladivostok)
‘Russian Seasons’ are the most world-known performances of Russian artists abroad. In 1907, the great impresario Sergei Diaghilev arranged for Russian historic concerts in Paris, which included performances by Rimsky-Korsakov, Rachmaninov and Glazunov. The exhibit features sketches for costumes of the legendary productions. As time went by, they became separate from the performances for which they were created and took on their own, independent significance. In other words, they became independent works of art. Nowadays, we feast our eyes on the works of artists with no thought of the pieces for which they were created.
The exhibition is located on the first floor of the Grand Hall atrium at the Primorsky Stage of the Mariinsky Theatre and is available to all repertory performance audiences.

25, Ulitsa Akademika Kasyanova, Russky Island
Primorsky Aquarium is the third largest in the world. Its total indoor area exceeds 37,000 square metres: the building shaped as a half-open white mollusc shell can accommodate nearly five football fields. The left wing of the building contains the main reservoir with a 70-metre underground tunnel. The right wing has a dolphinarium with an arena-style swimming pool and tribunes for 800 spectators. This is the first and only country’s aquarium that is part of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
All expositions are in line with the universal scientific theory: visitors can trace life all the way from the time it originated in the ocean to its modern diversity in all seas and climate zones of the planet. Over 500 species of sea animals are represented under the aquarium’s ‘shell’, the largest of them being Pacific walrus, dolphins, and beluga whales.
At 11:00 and 15:00, sea mammals demonstrate their skills in the dolphinarium.

7B, Ulitsa Arsenyeva, Vladivostok
This early 20th-century brick building is the last remaining building in Russia that was once served as a home and studio to the noted adventurer, researcher, and famous author Vladimir Arsenyev and his family. Thanks to his work in a wide variety of fields (geology, geography, toponymy, cartography, biology, archaeology, ethnography, history, etc.), the world learned about the heretofore unknown Ussuri Territory. By filling in the blank spots on geographic, ethnographic, and other maps, he not only aided territorial development, but also painted a complete portrait of life in this territory via his literary works, such as Dersu Uzala and Travels in the Sikhote-Alin Mountains.

9, Ulitsa Sukhanova, Vladivostok
This is the only museum in Russia dedicated to an imperial clerk and one of the few 19th-century single-family wooden houses left standing in Vladivostok. For quarter century, this house was home to the family of the Alexander Sukhanov, Senior Advisor of the Primorye Region Administration. In 1891, he received a valuable gift directly from Tsesarevich Nikolai: a portrait and a gold engraved Bure timepiece ‘for the excellent condition of the roads and order in the region.’

In addition to the permanent exhibitions in the museum's main building, which concern the history of the exploration and consolidation of the Russian Far East, visitors have the opportunity to learn about the Balhae Kingdom, which existed where Primorye Territory is located today, long before the arrival of Russian explorers.
The exhibition features unique objects discovered by archaeologists in Primorye Territory that reflect the spiritual world and material culture of the people living in the Balhae Kingdom.

Pushkin Theatre at the Far Eastern Federal University (27, Pushkinskaya Ulitsa, Vladivostok)
Lovers of visual art will enjoy a series of paintings that Alexandra Azovtseva created while living among Russian immigrants in China in the first half of the 20th century.
“In Shanghai, there are a lot of subjects for the artist: wonderful landscapes, the specific look of the local inhabitants, views of Shanghai, temples with their unique atmosphere on the outskirts of the city, where figures of the Buddha sometimes reached 32 feet high. This was old China with all its mysticism…
“I worked fervently and did not have enough time to capture all of this on canvas,” said Alexandra Azovtseva herself.
The exhibition will run until 30 September 2019.
Free entry.
Primorye State Art Gallery (12, Aleutskaya Ulitsa, Vladivostok)
The chamber exhibition tells about the diversity of Roman women’s jewellery. The oldest showpieces were created on the cusp of the 1st century B.C. and the 1st century A.D., in the early days of the Roman empire; and the newest – in the 3rd century A.D., when political and economic crises were closely following each other. Comparing austere and simple design of the 1st century, more sophisticated forms from the empire’s golden age and bright décor of the 3rd century, one can see how the tastes and concepts of beauty in the Roman society evolved.

Primorye State Art Gallery (12, Aleutskaya Ulitsa, Vladivostok)
Fyodor Reshetnikov’s painting Low Marks Again (1952) from the collection of the Tretyakov Gallery will be presented in Vladivostok for the first time. Thanks to its clear message and the vibrant portrayal of its subjects, this painting quickly gained popularity and is beloved throughout the country. By turning to such a subject matter, the high-profile metropolitan master and Stalin Prize laureate (for painting a portrait of the General Secretary) returned the intimate domestic genre to Soviet art. It can be said that this painting intuits the coming of the Thaw, clearing the way for the post-war generation to consider the simple pleasures and misfortunes of life during peacetime.
The Tretyakov Gallery project presents viewers with a new way to view this painting: the exhibition will include commentary providing context about the first post-war decade in figures and dates, literary works, and everyday objects.
The exhibition in Primorye State Art Gallery will run from 3 September to 10 November 2019.

Building А, level 6, Sberbank (office)
Sandro Botticelli (1445–1510) was a distinguished representative of the Quattrocento period of the Florentine painting. After his death, he fell into oblivion until the middle of the 19th century, when the public rediscovered interest in both the artist and his works. Connoisseurs and regular art lovers alike closely associate the name of Sandro Botticelli with early Renaissance art.
The exhibition is held with the participation of the Embassy of Italy in Moscow, in collaboration with the Uffizi Galleries (Florence) and with the support of Sberbank
Free admission for all Forum participants.
Starting 8 September, the painting will be exhibited in the Grand Hall of the Primorye State Art Gallery.

‘Russian Seasons’ are the most world-known performances of Russian artists abroad. In 1907, the great impresario Sergei Diaghilev arranged for Russian historic concerts in Paris, which included performances by Rimsky-Korsakov, Rachmaninov and Glazunov. The exhibit features sketches for costumes of the legendary productions. As time went by, they became separate from the performances for which they were created and took on their own, independent significance. In other words, they became independent works of art. Nowadays, we feast our eyes on the works of artists with no thought of the pieces for which they were created.
