Severyukhin, D. Ya. Art Market and Self-Organization of Artists in Leningrad (St. Petersburg) During the Transitional Period (Mid 1980 – Mid 2000)

Abstract: The article is devoted to the artistic life of Leningrad (St. Petersburg) during the transitional 20 years (mid 1980 – mid 2000). The author of the article analyzes the development of art market, exhibition and gallery business and describes activities performed by unions of artists. It is concluded that new tendencies became evident in St. Petersburg only by mid 2000 when the ‘Western’ type of galleries were founded. These galleries have managed to combine business practice with promotion of modern art and certainly gave tone to this sphere.
