Chuvash State Art Museum
About museum
The museum houses a significant collection of Russian and foreign art. Exhibitions, tours, lectures, meetings with the artistic intelligentsia, presentations and concerts are held here. In 1939 the Chuvash State Art Gallery was established, comprising 293 works of painting, graphics, sculpture and decorative-applied art by Chuvash, Russian and Soviet artists. In 1972 the gallery was given the former mansion of F. P. Efremov, and expeditions around Chuvashia began in the 1980s. In 1985 a new building was constructed to a design by architect V. D. Shatilov and the gallery was renamed the Chuvash State Art Museum. It features a permanent exhibition of Chuvash fine art, while the old mansion houses works of Russian and Western European art from the 17th to the early 20th centuries. The museum hosts various events that attract the attention of local residents and visitors from other cities.
