Gallery of V. Bronshteyn

Viktor Bronshteyn’s Gallery is the largest gallery in Siberia. You can see the fine art paintings, graphic and sculptural works of not only Siberian artists, but also authors from different regions of Russia and other countries. Permanent exhibition of the well-known artist Dashi Namdakov is the pride of the collection. You can see the unique sculpture “Bird and Tiger” presented in the hall, which is made from lapis lazuli and bronze.

This gallery is an absolute must for any traveler to Irkutsk. Here you can find the best contemporary art in Irkutsk and probably all of Siberia, with a strong focus on the indigenous Buryat and Evenk artists who explore their own roots with exceptional creativity and up-to-the-minute techniques. The gallery is quite large, offering the opportunity to see several exhibits at once. The staff is very welcoming, and there are opportunities on the premises to relax with refreshments and to buy creative gifts you can't find anywhere else. But the art is the real standout here. If you are curious about the direction of contemporary art in Siberia -- and want to enjoy the outstanding skill of some of its best practitioners -- then you've found the right spot!

While staying in Irkutsk I decided to also visit this museum. Getting there and back is somewhat tricky and speaking Russian definitely helps: There are minibusses for the route between Irkutsk and Listvyanka that you can take to the museum. The stop for the museum is just off the highway and there isn't really anything other than the museum here, so you should for sure tell the driver this is where you are headed. Getting back I just stood at the bus stop and stopped the next bus that went past which worked out fine. The museum is really interesting and gives a good overview over the different ethnicities and cultures in the area. Additionally, the nature around the museum is really worth the trip itself... even (or especially) when it is bitter cold like during my visit!
