The Moscow Museum of Modern Art (MMOMA) and the Russian Abstract Art Fund (RAI Fund) announce the holding of the New Reality Studio exhibition (1958–1991). Transformation of consciousness ”, which tells about a unique phenomenon in the domestic culture of the second half of the twentieth century, the work of the New Reality studio, founded by the famous artist, teacher and thinker Eli Belyutin. The exhibition will be held from October 18, 2016 to January 15, 2017 at MMOMA.

For the first time in recent decades, a whole layer of works of Russian abstract art will become available to the public - paintings, theoretical and methodological developments, documents and other materials related to the work of the studio, which, for many historical reasons, have been undeservedly stored in archives and storage rooms for a long time.

The exposition will feature more than 100 paintings by the main representatives of the New Reality. Among them, E. Belyutin, V. Zubarev, L. Gribkov, T. Ter-Ghevondyan, V. Preobrazhenskaya and others.

The event is supported by the Government of Moscow.
