the Exhibition "In search of modern style. The Leningrad experience. The second half of the 1950-х — mid 1960-х" aims to tell about the changes in society and in the objective world of the era of "thaw". The exhibition includes over 200 works of decorative-прикладного art, drawing, painting and sculpture.

the Concept of "modern style" came into use by the middle fifties and was enshrined in the professional publications of magazine "Decorative art USSR" (published in 1957). The modern style developed simultaneously and easel art, and architecture, and in meaningful environments, in the last he manifested the most powerful. A new understanding of morphogenesis was based on the experience of the Soviet constructivism and the international style, understanding of modern technology. Today, this stage historians call the Soviet modernism.

Modern style, in contrast to Stalin's Empire, assumed availability, lack of status. Old city-forming slogan of the avant-garde "art to the masses" appeared in its more modest, domesticated form of art in every home.

the Exhibition is built on the premises of the Leningrad material. The peculiarity of the Leningrad tradition was to susceptibility to classical modernism in its various manifestations: here he worked and taught students the classics of the avant-garde, has been relatively independent in professional artistic production and workshops, and informal art groups.
