Vinzavod yard
Photo was made in August inside the yard of Modern art center "Vinzavod" (link to the site in English). Vinzavod means the wine factory which it was till the 21st century. In 2007 the place became the meeting point of Moscow modern artists. The names of the exhibition places sound very vinery: The hall of Red, the hall of White, the hall of big reservoir, the hall of fermenting, plus many galleries with rather arty names.
A friend of mine (Thank you, Simone!) sent me the link (please press here) which I want to share with you.
Russian photographer did the colorful shots in the early 20th century (between 1909-1912) and look at the quality of that shots! Besides, they are very interesting not only technically but as the source of info about the Russian Empire before the revolution.
I have just realized that we have not listen to music in this blog for so long (after I removed all music links in search for possible viruses and pop-ups). But I want to go on.
This is the old Russian Cossack song about the dream seen by the soldier before the battle, foreboding that he will lose his young head.
