Open Ocean Halls: Pacific Time
Cities by the ocean follow their own rhythm. Time is measured in partings and meetings, by anticipating and returning. Time and space are perceived differently here, in a way that cannot be counted in seconds or kilometres. ‘Open Ocean Halls: Pacific Time’ is a tale of the rhythm of Vladivostok, a rhythm that has been lived, is lived, and will be lived for generations.
Ships and People: The Russian-Japanese War
This exhibition features the people and ships involved at the end of the war between the Russian and Japanese empires. The city of Vladivostok and the Pacific Fleet played a vital part in this war. The ships of the Vladivostok cruiser squadron were involved in the campaigns and many of those who fought in the war were natives of the city. Personal belongings, photographs, and diary entries provide an opportunity to look at the key episodes in the Russian-Japanese War without a textbook, living their stories of victory and defeat.

The brick building dates from the early twentieth century. It is the only surviving house in Russia where the prominent traveller, explorer, and writer Vladimir Arseniev lived with his family and worked. The previously unknown Ussurian Territory was opened up thanks to his work in various fields of science (geology, geography, toponymy, cartography, biology, archaeology, ethnography, history, and others). Filling in the blanks on geographical, ethnographic, and other maps, he not only made a vital contribution to opening up the territory, but also created a full picture of life there through artistic works like Dersu Uzala and In the Sikhote-Alin Mountains.

The only museum devoted to the tsar’s official in Russia and one of the few surviving nineteenth-century wooden mansions in Vladivostok. The family of Alexander Sukhanov, the Senior Advisor in the Primorsky Regional Government who, in 1891, received a valuable gift from the future Nicholas II in person – a portrait and a Bure gold watch ‘for the excellent condition of the roads and good order in the region’, lived in this house for a quarter of a century.

This exhibition devoted to the International Tchaikovsky Competition, drawing on the collections of the Russian National Museum of Music and the archives of the competition itself, will present photographs depicting the competition opening and closing ceremonies, competitors drawing lots to determine the order in which they will perform, auditions, jury discussions, the triumph of tutors, and the award of prizes, as well as items illustrating the life and work of this great Russian composer.

The exhibition is located on the ground floor in the atrium of the Primorsky Stage of the Mariinsky Theatre Great Hall and is open to all those visiting the theatre to see a production.

The All-Russian Youth Symphony Orchestra was founded in 2012 under the direction of Yuri Bashmet. The orchestra’s original line-up comprised 79 young musicians aged between 9 and 21 from 28 Russian towns.
The orchestra, which is the only one of its kind in Russia, was formed on the basis of a nationwide competition for classical musicians that was unique in its conception and scale. The competition finalists had a unique opportunity to take part in master classes given by leading global musicians and perform with them at the orchestra’s debut concerts.
