Exhibitions of the Gallery of Siberian Art

About exhibition

The Gallery of Siberian Art is housed in two two-storey stone mansions in the city centre, built at the end of the 19th century. It currently presents permanent exhibitions of the Siberian portrait (Cossack pioneers, Siberian merchants, statesmen, members of the clergy) and of religious art. The centerpiece of the exhibition devoted to religious art is the only surviving porcelain iconostasis of a house church in Siberia, created by the craftsmen of the famous porcelain-and-faience factory of I. D. Perevalov, later known as the Khaitin Porcelain Factory. The collection also includes unique icons from the 16th–19th centuries and a collection of wooden religious sculpture from the 17th–19th centuries from the museum's holdings. A single admission ticket to the Gallery of Siberian Art also allows access to temporary exhibitions. The detailed exhibition schedule can be found on the museum's website.
