The exhibition of Aleksandr Burganov’s plastic sculptures is opening on April 28 in the courtyard of the A.A. Bakhrushin Theatre Museum. It will be held the whole summer. The place was chosen because of its unique garden filled with greenery, flowers and soft sunlight.

Aleksandr Burganov (born in 1935) is a People’s Artist of Russia, a Member of the Russian Academy of Arts, an Honorary Member of the Russian Academy of Architecture and Construction Sciences, a Laureate of the State Prize of the USSR, a Doctor of Arts, a Professor. He is working with graphic arts, monumental and easel sculpture. Burganov is a founder of the Russian school of architectural decorative plastics. His sculptural works are kept at the «Burganov’s House» Moscow State Museum, the State Tretyakov Gallery, the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, the State Russian Museum, the «Ludwig Forum» Museum of Modern Art (Aachen, Germany) and in the different collections in Russia, France, the USA, Germany, Belgium, Switzerland and Bulgaria.

The collaboration between the A.A. Bakhrushin Theatre Museum and Aleksandr Burganov represents an organic continuation of the creativity of the sculptor, who took a great interest in the theatrical art in 1990’s. Theatrical productions were put on in the courtyard of the «Burganov’s House» Museum, where sculptural figures served as set design. The interaction between the sculptures and plasticity of the human body was strengthened thanks to the music and referred to the avant-garde theatre of the beginning of the XXth century.

The exhibition «Theatre of Sculptures» invites us to immerse ourselves into a cozy theatre that unites the art of sculpture, the landscape of the Bakhrushin garden and the museum’s architecture. And the audience will participate as actors in the new space.

The upcoming exhibition presents 20 works made by Aleksandr Burganov. Special attention should be paid to the bust of Rudolf Nureyev, the plastic portrait of Mikhail Bulgakov, the sculpture of Aleksey Bakhrushin, the founder of the Theatre Museum – it is impossible to imagine the modern theatre and its heritage without these persons. Also there you can see the compositions «Alphabet for the Deaf», «Love Runs Away», «Sphinx», «Wheel of Fortune», etc. The exhibition will be held until September 30.
