The main idea of the project is to show millions of Russians how the country has changed over the course of almost 200 years, using the works created by classic Russian and Russian painters as examples. Soviet art.
“It is customary to receive gifts on a birthday. But we decided to depart from this tradition and in our anniversary year we ourselves present a unique gift to the Russians - the project “Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of seven generations," says CEO company "Ingosstrakh" Mikhail Volkov. - This is a project that symbolically unites our entire country from west to east. I am sure that our exhibitions will please the guests and bring them unforgettable impressions. It is no coincidence that we chose the theme of art for our anniversary federal project. The company traditionally supports cultural events and is a participant in conservation programs cultural heritage nation. In addition, Ingosstrakh has been insuring art objects for many years in a row, and during the exhibition of masterpieces not only in Russia, but also abroad.”
The idea, which will be implemented jointly with the company's partners - the State Tretyakov Gallery and the Institute of Russian Realistic Art (IRRI), starts in the westernmost point of Russia. Two weeks later, on July 19 in Kaliningradskaya art gallery an exhibition opens, which will present paintings and graphics from the collection of the Institute of Russian Realistic Art. Further, traveling exhibitions await viewers in Nizhny Novgorod, Krasnoyarsk and Vladivostok, which will include canvases from the collections of IRRI and Tretyakov Gallery. More than a hundred paintings will take part in the exhibition project, including masterpieces by Alexander Deineka, Sergey Gerasimov, Yuri Pimenov, Georgy Nyssky, Geliy Korzhev, Viktor Popkov, Erik Bulatov and others famous artists last century.
In turn, in Sochi, Yekaterinburg, Moscow and St. Petersburg, visitors will see the multimedia project Masterpieces Without Borders.

The big tour will end in November of this year in Vladivostok. In Primorskaya art gallery will be introduced the most important works art created in the 20th century.
According to the founder of the Institute of Russian Realistic Art Alexei Ananyev, this traveling exhibition will be a new and extremely important experience.
"Despite our young age - IRRI turned five last year, we have implemented two notable international projects, but did not stop thinking about showing canvases from our collection in the cities of Russia. Thanks to Ingosstrakh, this idea came to life. The principle of selection for the traveling exhibition allowed us to take a fresh look at own collection. Interesting, intriguing stories are connected with the canvases presented at the exhibition, which we will tell our new viewers in full detail," Ananyev says about his participation in the project.
“For museums in Moscow and St. Petersburg, whether it is a state museum or a private one, as in the case of IRRI, it is very important to show exhibitions of their works in the regions,” Zelfira Tregulova, director of the State Tretyakov Gallery, picks up. in regional centers. Now, unfortunately, due to the lack of budget funding, such programs are facing big problems. In the project "Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of Seven Generations" it is very important to combine the efforts of the largest national art museum, one of the most interesting and vibrant private museums, and the Ingosstrakh company, which does an incredible amount so that we can organize exhibitions in the regions and reliably insure works, not flying out at the same time "into the pipe".
The paintings that will be presented at the exhibitions are insured by Ingosstrakh under the terms "with responsibility for all risks". The insurance covers all possible damages, as well as the risks of complete loss of items that occurred for any reason. The project will last until the end of the year. Entrance for visitors to all exhibitions will be free.
In honor of its 70th anniversary, Ingosstrakh organized a large-scale project, within which residents of the regions can get acquainted with the art of the capital. Paintings from the collections of the Tretyakov Gallery, rightfully considered the main state museum national art, and IRRI went on a trip around our country. By the way, the Institute of Russian Realistic Art is conditionally called the largest private museum of Russian painting, so art partners have something to brag about.
The exposition focuses on the work of the twentieth century. The last century turned out to be rich not only in events, but also in artistic approaches. So, for example, Yevsey Moiseenko preferred a temperamental manner and disliked the correct academic drawing, Alexander Deineka added monumentality to his characters, and Konstantin Yuon re-discovers domestic landscapes. In addition to these artists, the exhibition will also show paintings by Yuri Pimenov, Alexei Gritsai, Sergei Gerasimov, Georgy Savitsky and many others.
Russian painting of the twentieth century managed to reflect the history of the country on canvases. Somewhere they captured the longing for the bygone times of the empire, somewhere they depicted the revolutionary enthusiasm of the 20s, the post-war breath of life or the spiritual upsurge of the “thaw”. The paintings have become a kind of window into the history of a particular period.
Meanwhile, the concept of "window" at the exhibition opens in different ways. The viewer is offered not only to look into the past time or discover Russia from an unusual angle, but also to completely immerse himself in art. The authors of the project present multimedia shows where they fantasize what could be left behind the picture frame or how the plot would develop in real time.

The unifying theme of the project was the “View from the Window” motif known since the time of the Renaissance culture. It is transformed into the painting of the twentieth century. Windows are both a way for an artist to look into the life of small towns and villages, and a symbol of active construction and expansion in the post-war years, and an attempt to express himself in domestic genre moving away from ideological bias.

“This project largely repeats the phenomenal success of the exhibitions of the Association of Traveling Exhibitions. And such a project, in terms of scale, quality, and significance, in my opinion, has not been seen for almost a hundred years. Five big exhibitions, three grandiose shows, almost 150 educational lectures and master classes, almost 400-page catalog. And all this is absolutely free for visitors. This is something that can be safely called a continuation of the traditions of patronage, philanthropy and charity. “Windows to Russia”, among other things, is a brilliant example of partnership between public and private museum institutions and a large, and most importantly, socially responsible business,” says Nadezhda Stepanova, project curator, art director of the Institute of Russian Realistic Art.
“For each city, within the framework of the general concept, we have prepared a completely exclusive exhibition. The famous "Morning" by Tatyana Yablonskaya was brought to Nizhny Novgorod, a masterpiece by Konstantin Yuon was presented in Krasnoyarsk, 50 masterpieces from the collection of the Tretyakov Gallery were brought to Vladivostok. Each time the exhibition opened our meetings for us with new side. Before our eyes the project “Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of Seven Generations” went through its formation and development, surprising and delighting both ourselves and the audience,” says Zelfira Tregulova, general director of the State Tretyakov Gallery. “With exhibitions all over the country, we have been able to do a lot of work in cooperation with local museums, as well as get feedback from visitors. This experience once again convinced us that the opening of a branch of the Tretyakov Gallery in Vladivostok is a relevant and popular idea, and now we are even more determined to implement it.”
“Over the 70 years of its existence, Ingosstrakh has experienced a lot turning points, together with the inhabitants of our country, we learned to live in new conditions and participated in the creation of the future - the company, the insurance industry, the country as a whole. This path can be safely called historical, - comments General Director of Ingosstrakh Mikhail Volkov. - In the anniversary year, we decided to look at this path through the prism of art in order to see new parallels and the unifying principle that binds all of us - the inhabitants of Russia. And we are sure that thanks to the project “Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of seven generations” and the work of artists of the 20th century, we succeeded.”
One of the important results of the project was the inclusion of the founder of the Institute of Russian Realistic Art Alexei Ananiev in the shortlist of nominees for the VI Annual The Art Newspaper Russia Award in the Personal Contribution nomination. Exhibition “Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of seven generations” is the third traveling project Institute of Russian Realistic Art. It is interesting that IRRI has previously opened a “window to Europe” by showing exhibitions in London (“Soviet Sport”, 2012) and in Rome (“Russia on the way: by plane, train, car” 2015).
Also in May 2018, a separate exhibition “Windows to Russia. Masterpieces of Seven Generations”, which will present all the main masterpieces of this large-scale tour.
