The Moscow Museum of Modern Art has launched a series of lectures on Russian Art of the 20^th and early 21st centuries for an English-speaking audience. 

In October 2015, the Museum of Moscow will exhibit a unique collection of images of pre-revolutionary Moscow from Sergey Chelnokov’s archive, available for the first time for the general public. Most of the photos were made using the then-unique technique of ‘stereo-pairs’, which require the images to be viewed through a special device, creating a 3D picture. A series of lectures ‘Photography and Cultural Memory’ will run alongside the exhibition.

We’d like to recommend an English-language online resource that includes hundreds of walks, stories and photos of Moscow’s historical landmarks.
