"Hymn to Labor"

Soviet Art from the Collection of the Russian Museum, St. Petersburg

August 5 - November 1, 2010

Benois Wing

"Hymn to Labor" is one of the most important exhibitions of Socialist Realism and Working Class Impressionism ever held. The exhibition presents More than 200 works of art, most exhibited for the first time, from The Russian Museum in St.Petersburg. The works include painting, sculpture, graphic and decorative arts on the workers and labor feats of the Soviet people. We hope you can make it to see the exhibition. However, if St. Petersburg is a little far for you to travel and you don't care for the jet lag, we suggest an easy and pleasant visit to Park City, Utah. The Thomas Kearns McCarthey Gallery has one of America's best collections of Socialist Realism and Working Class Impressionism by many of the same artists that are included in the Russian Museum exhibition.
