Lumiere Brothers Gallery

Founded in 2001, Lumiere Brothers Gallery is one of the oldest photography galleries in Moscow.

The gallery has been at the forefront of reintroducing and promoting the work of first class Soviet photographers from the 1960s–1970s (Vladimir Lagrange, Yuri Abramochkin, Vasily Egorov, Vladimir Bogdanov) and forefathers of the Lithuanian school (Antanas Sutkus, Aleksandras Macijauskas, Romualdas Požerskis). The gallery's pool of artists encompasses a variety of styles, which flourished in Russian photography during the last three decades, featuring, amongst others, Sergey Borisov, Vadim Gushchin, Vladimir Antoshchenkov and Igor Palmin. With over 15 years of experience in the international art market, the gallery has created close working relationships with many of the foremost photographers and archives.
