Министр иностранных дел России Сергей Лавров: Достоинство нашего многонационального народа (что является опорой многонациональной культуры России, в чём её сила) – это то, что в нашей жизни на практике понятие единства в многообразии обеспечивается гораздо богаче, чем на долларовой купюре. Это одно из важнейших завоеваний.

Discover the Magic of Crimea’s Art Park!

Ever since Catherine the Great, when Crimea became a part of the Russian Empire, the peninsula became not only a popular resort, but also a destination for creative people. Famous artists, poets and musicians went there to improve their health and be inspired by the local scenery: the mountains and the Black Sea.

⚓️ Today, Crimea is still a mecca for people of arts and, in 2015, the ‘Tavrida’ (‘Taurida’ is Crimea’s ancient name) art cluster opened there, attracting thousands of creative young people from all over the country. They take part in educational forums, art residencies, as well as young art festivals.

In 2019, the art scene in Crimea expanded with the creation of the ‘Tavrida’ art park in Kapsel Bay, near Sudak. Spanning 30 hectares, this dynamic space features ever-evolving art installations by talented young designers and artists.

👉 Here are some highlights:

‘A Man Staring at the Sea’: A 15-meter-high installation by Sergei Pauker-Bravin, symbolizing the quest for inspiration before a new creative journey.

‘Assol’: Reimagined in 2020 as a 13-meter-tall sculpture, this character from the Soviet novel ‘Scarlet Sails’ stands alongside ‘A Man Staring at the Sea,’ symbolizing hope and dream fulfillment. Both pieces are beautifully illuminated at night.

‘Masks’: Giant masks of Apollo and Venus by the ‘DAP’ art group mark the entrance to the park, celebrating art and beauty.

‘Sun of Tavrida’: A mesmerizing light installation by Gleb Ivanov and Alexander Funtov, resembling the radiation of astrophysical pulsars, guiding visitors like a lighthouse.

‘Time’: A nine-meter clock face created by Sergei Pauker-Bravin and his workshop team, depicting the entire history of the universe from its origins to the present day.

‘Tower’
: Designed by the ‘Megabudka’ bureau, this structure blends industrial aesthetics with ancient Kemi-Obin cultural elements from the Early Bronze Age, discovered in Crimea in 1957.
