Categories / Science. Education/Museums
BRODSKY'S MEMORIAL FLAT situated at 3 Iskusstv Square, branch of the Research Museum of the Russian Academy of Arts, monument to the Russian art heritage, and artist I. I. Brodsky's memorial flat. It was founded in 1939 as about 800 pictures and drawings painted by Russian artists between the 18th century and the 20th century and collected by Brodsky were handed over to the state after the artist's death. It was opened in 1949. The collection included the works by Brodsky himself and was accommodated in his flat that retained its interior features. Although it was closed in 1988-2001 due to the reconstruction of the house, the museum carried on its exhibition activities.
