There is a place in Russia, where photography lives and breathes in the inviting space, filled with light, labyrinths of white lines and staircases. One of the most dynamic spaces dedicated exclusively to photography and video art, Multimedia Art Museum in Moscow became a center of the beehive in the photography life of the city. Museum regularly hosts amazing exhibitions, workshops and lectures, inviting ‘big names photographers and artists’. As part of the Photo Biennale, MAMM currently hosts several exhibitions of Russian and international photographers including Hiroshi Sugimoto, Osamu Shiibara, Sebastiao Salgado, Steve Fitch, Sergey Chilikov and others. One thing is for certain: without this museum, Moscow’s contemporary art scene would lose some of its burgeoning glow.
