On Instagram, your child can spend time in different ways: to find out the news of friends, watch how his favorite actress is spending the day, or watch live broadcasts with a popular blogger. But the content of the platform does not end there. We decided to collect accounts through which you can not only learn about new events or trends, but also gain a lot of useful knowledge about art, in an interactive and modern format. Invite your child to subscribe to them. We are confident that he will appreciate this approach.
@nekrasovka
Who Said Libraries Are Boring? Looking at Nekrasovka’s profile, your child will be convinced of the opposite. Here subscribers will find reviews of useful and fascinating books, quotes from the world’s best works, announcements of educational events, film club meetings and current library news.
@tretyakov_gallery
How the Museum of National Art of Russia lives, you can find out from the profile of @tretyakov_gallery. For example, the program “The Tretyakov Gallery Opens Its Storerooms” is now continuing its work in the gallery, within the framework of which one can look at the exhibitions “Pictures of Russian History” and “Wax Plastics by Fyodor Tolstoy”. It is worth visiting a popular page both for the sake of art and in order not to miss the opportunity to get into the #yavtretyakov section – every week the gallery publishes the best photo of its visitors.
@erarta_museum
The largest exhibition complex of contemporary art among private museums in Russia – the Erarta Museum from St. Petersburg – is actively engaged in a dialogue with its subscribers. Here you can not only enjoy the pictures of the latest exhibitions, but also find like-minded people in the comments. Now the museum is hosting an exhibition of the famous Chinese “invisible artist” Liu Bolin, who inscribes his figure in the cityscape, hinting that modern man is dissolving in megacities. You can understand how it looks and take part in the museum competition by logging into your @erarta_museum account.
@garagemca
Garage Museum of Contemporary Art knows how to surprise. The museum’s Instagram account is a kind of guide to new expositions, an album with photographs of visitors and a poster of the latest cultural events. If you don’t have the opportunity to come and see everything with your own eyes, Garage’s live broadcasts are worth your attention. On March 17, the museum opens the exhibition of Andro Vekua “Dolphin in the fountain”, you can already read about it on the museum’s Instagram.
@museums4_all
Petersburg art critic or, as the author calls herself, “museum maniac” Satenik Yepremyan popularizes art through his Instagram page. In addition, the girl gives various tips on getting involved in art from an early age: how to properly plan a trip to the museum, which books to read and which routes to take first of all.
@rukhina
A huge collection of images of Soviet mosaics decorating local buildings across the country is collected on the @rukhina profile. As time passed, the panels of the years of the USSR no longer seem to be propaganda, but are increasingly equated with works of art. You can find out more about where exactly you can see the mosaics of interest by looking at the captions to the pictures.
@eliz_art
Contemporary art is so multifaceted that it is not so easy to comprehend it. The account of art critic Elizaveta Frolova will appeal to the girl’s personal stories, interesting facts from the world of modern art and, of course, video lectures – the author launches exciting live broadcasts about modern art. Video format is the best way to learn today.
@icon_elizart
Another profile of Elizabeth about art, dedicated to icon painting. The author tells a lot of interesting facts about the origin of Orthodox icons, religious holidays and traditions. Elizabeth’s notes are also interesting from the point of view of the author’s notes – it turns out simply and at the same time figuratively.
@tatatimofeeva
The account of Tata Timofeeva, an art critic and lecturer, can tell about a lot from the art world: about the biography of legendary Russian and world artists, about books, exhibitions and museums. All this in an accessible and easy way. In addition, Tata often travels and shares her impressions of iconic historical sites.
@shoesinart
Dedicated to shoe lovers. Devon Head, an art critic from Great Britain, once decided to become a stylist and in her free time started an Instagram account, but not with the latest designer shoes, but with fragments of paintings from world classics. What did the gladiators of antiquity, ladies of the Victorian era, royalty and Japanese emperors wear, you can find out from Devon’s profile. Do not be surprised if you find that some of the shoe models are very much reminiscent of Manolo Blahnik, Valentino or Prada. As they say, everything new is well forgotten old.
@museumofselfies
If you have long dreamed of introducing your child to the world of fine arts, but have not yet had time, this ironic English-language profile will come to the rescue. The Instagram account contains works of world art with a “small” change – all the heroes of the paintings take selfies.
@ laserb.kate
Katya Kovalevskaya’s profile is incredibly bright and juicy. Her image is a kind of art. The girl talentedly uses paints to create her own style. You should go here for creative inspiration and fresh ideas. By the way, the girl is also engaged in making creative design badges, which can push your child to a new hobby.
