Dias Art Gallery
About museum
In 2009, the first private museum of contemporary art in Irkutsk was founded — the Dias Art Gallery. It contains more than 3,000 works of art, including pieces by Salvador Dalí and Pablo Picasso. In addition, the gallery organizes various exhibitions and master classes, ranging from intimate shows to solo and group exhibitions, which are presented within the gallery's walls as well as in other museums and exhibition venues in Irkutsk and other cities. Each year between 12 and 20 exhibitions take place, supported by the oblast and regional governments and by consulates of other countries.
