Alexey Novoselov
«If we talk about our difference from the museums of contemporary art in the classical sense, then, first of all, I would like to draw attention to the fact that we are a museum of modern, not contemporary art. This means that we work with a wide range of 20th century art, from the avant-garde to the present day. » (Alexey Novoselov, ArtGid)
