Take a look at this forest on the side of a Moscow museum

28 July 2016

Check out the new Forests installation on the facade of Moscow’s Polytechnic Museum.

The artist behind Forests, Anna Krivtsova, together with architect Levan Davlianidze, installed the plants on the scaffolding that is such a recognisable characteristic of the building’s exterior. At the night the “forest” is backlit.

Forests is a collaborative project between the Polytechnic Museum and the Moscow-based V-A-C Foundation, which is dedicated to the development of Russian contemporary art. The installation will be open to visitors until 25 August.
