M4: Moscow's New Museum Cluster
Four prestigious Moscow museums have joined together.
This fall four of Moscow’s leading museums — the State Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, the State Tretyakov Gallery, Garage Museum of Contemporary Art and the soon-to-open GES-2 House of Culture — have joined together to form a new kind of association called M4.

M4 is, in the words of Pushkin Museum director Marina Loshak, a formal recognition of the cooperation these four museums have had for a long time. “M4 is the most we can do to join together at present,” she said. “From the bureaucratic point of view, museums can’t combine. For example, it’s still impossible to buy one ticket to all the museums at one time. But we could create an inter-museum team of lawyers, managers, curators and inclusion specialists.”

“We’re letting visitors and tourists know that there are four museums, and if you go in every one of them, you’ll get a the whole picture, as it were — the history of art.
