About the tour
The New Tretyakov is a place where art stops being “too difficult”.
On this tour children meet the artists of the 20th century not through dull terminology but through feeling, comparison, questions and their own impressions.
Together with Yulia, a children’s guide and art historian, they will:
- look closely at the paintings
- argue and think
- hunt for hidden meanings
- compare artists
- learn to see the unusual in the familiar
This is a tour where you may ask questions, imagine things and even disagree with the artists 😊
How the tour goes
On the walk through the galleries the children:
- meet the artists of the Russian avant-garde
- talk about the paintings
- hunt for unusual details
- learn to make sense of modern styles
- compare the Russian and the French masters
The tour runs as a live conversation — through dialogue, thinking and noticing.

Who it suits

Even those who usually say:
“I don’t understand anything about paintings.”
How to prepare

And most of all — do not be afraid of art 😊
