Anna Nova Gallery

Anna Nova Gallery was founded by Anna Barinova in 2005, and is currently one of the leading galleries in Russia. The gallery actively supports original and innovative interdisciplinary art practices, producing research-based projects and large-scale installations. In the past few years the gallery has expanded its activities and now aims to discover and promote young artists who work with urgent cultural issues and challenges that our society faces today.

Many of these artists are interested in scientific research and their practice stem naturally from contemporary technological developments. They operate on the global scale, pursuing nomadic lives of contemporary agents of culture, introducing local contexts into international cultural environment.

In order to boost Russian growing art scene, in 2006 the gallery has initiated Nova Art Contest, the aim of which is to discover and support the younger generation of artists. In different years the Contest Jury consisted of influential art professionals.

The works of the gallery artists feature in the collections of Centre Pompidou (Paris, France), Real Academia de Bellas Artes de San Fernando (Madrid, Spain), State Tretyakov Gallery (Moscow, Russia), Ruya Foundation For Contemporary Culture (Iraq), etc.
