CULTURE is a contemporary art gallery operating as an institutional platform with a sustainable exhibition and educational program. The gallery is located in Rostov-on-Don and is a unique institution for the city, acting as a unifying platform for the professional community and open to a wide audience.
The gallery's projects are implemented in collaboration with independent curators. Among the topics addressed by the CULTURE exhibition program are memory, identity, and subjective experience in modern visual culture.
The activity is based on consistent work with artists from Russia and Europe, support for their career paths and the development of the local cultural environment. The gallery works as a mediator between the regional scene and the federal art field, integrating the southern cultural context into the national and international professional dialogue.
The founder of the gallery is Valeria Barmina, a designer and collector.
