Russian Art and Culture is the largest free-to-use website dedicated to Russian art and culture. We act as a bridge between the academic community and the commercial art world. The mission of Russian Art and Culture is to provide to provide the best reviews, articles and news on Russian art and related exhibition and interesting cultural events in the U.K The site was created in response to the successful ‘Cultural Exchange: Russia and the West’ conference at the University of Bristol in 2011, which was organised by the Founding Editor. Russian Art and Culture was originally launched as an arts blog to create an on-going forum for discussion of Russian Art and Culture. Due to the success and popular demand the blog was converted into a website in May 2012.
