Reviews of The Museum of Russian Art
""The work of art is born of the artist in a mysterious and secret way. From him it gains life and being. Nor is its existence casual and inconsequent, but it has a definite and purposeful strength, alike in its material and spiritual life." ~Wassily Kandinsky What a beautifully pleasant surprise if you love art! We were wowed by the permanent collection and a few quite extraordinary pieces like: Milkmaids, Novella, 1962 Nikolai N. Baskakov Oil on Canvas, 47 x 90 Gift of Pam and Jack Safar, 2015 The architectural design of the gallery.is beautiful too. - The Museum of Russian Art is the only museum in North America dedicated to the preservation and presentation of Russian art and artifacts.They feature a dynamic rotation of exhibitions providing a gateway to understanding Russia's history, its heritage, and its art through the masterworks of its greatest artists."
"This place is an absolute gem. It's small but has a nice variety, with a moderate price. First of all, the parking: there is no lot immediately adjacent to the museum. There is some parking along the street, including along what is a frontage road for the highway, but museum visitors can also park in the church lot across the street. We had no line upon entry and the place was fairly empty on a January at midday. The lady at the counter was enthusiastic and friendly as she told us about what was on each floor of the museum. We began wandering on the main floor, through an exhibit of winter traditions in Russia, and continued from there. I especially loved some of their permanent pieces like the Milkmaids (no photograph can do it justice). The museum is forthright about their support of Ukraine, which I much appreciated, and even had an exhibit of pro-Ukraine artwork. A lot of reviews mention the gift shop, as well they should. It's a charming place. Expensive, yes, but the stuff tends to be higher quality and/or unique. They had a lot of imported foods I hadn't seen before. I bought a pottery take on Baba Yaga's chicken-footed house, which I absolutely adore. This is definitely a place I'd visit again as exhibits change, and it'd be great to bring company here from out of town (I should note that the museum is not far away from MSP airport)."
"Spectacular art in a really cool setting. We really enjoyed the special exhibits as well. Olga Volchkova was on display and the work was incredible."
"A big assortment of Russian historical pieces. Reception was nice. Toilets are clean. Whole place is well taken care of."
"Glad we took the time to stop and visit this museum. My daughter is a real afficianado of Russian art and chose this for our family during our visit to Minneapolis. We weren't sure if we would like it as much, but it was great. The docents were very welcoming. What a shock to learn that it's the only museum of Russian art in North America. The museum shop was so filled with beautiful crafts, jewelry, textiles, art cards, prints, and soooo many books."
