In an interview with the Financial Times, billionaire and well-known collector of Russian avant-garde has admitted that he dreams to create a where-нибудь Museum for his collection — but not in Moscow and not in England

According to Peter Aven, in Moscow the Museum was eclipsed by a more powerful state Assembly and in London, such a Museum may not arouse sufficient interest. The collector is inclined to what-то to another city – for example, Riga, where his grandfather.

works from the collection of Peter Aven, including works of Natalia Goncharova, Mikhail Larionov, Vasily Kandinsky, Marc Chagall, Vladimir Lebedev and others, have repeatedly taken part in Museum exhibitions – at the Moscow Jewish Museum, the Tate gallery, the Royal Academy (in the recent hit exhibition the Russian avant-garde), new-йоркском MOMA, and others.

Aven hoped that when-нибудь separate exhibitions will be rewarded with its extensive collection of Soviet porcelain 1917 – 1941 In the opinion of the collector, Russian porcelain is much more original than in the visual arts, inspired by Western designs.

the Last quarter-century Pyotr Aven collected Russian art of late XIX – early XX century. He wanted to create an ordered whole Assembly and succeeded. However, over time his tastes evolved. And if he suddenly began to create a collection from scratch, I'd do it not purely Russian. Now, step by step Assembly Avena becomes international. "It's fascinating to me when the Italian, German and Russian art of XX century, developing in the conditions of totalitarian regimes", @says - Aven. In his garden today, you can find "Spider" by Louise Bourgeois, the work of Antony Gormley and Grisha Bruskin, and the famous "Reclining figure" by Henry Moore to be acquired for 19 million pounds (this sale 2012 several years was a record for Henry Moore).
