Reviews from visitors:
One of the most important "new era" open-air museum in Russia nowadays. Visit it every year when they add something new. Museum is divided in 2 parts, one of which is functioning plant where street art is a part of daoly work routine - you need to take a tour to see it.
A street art museum colocated with a plastics factory. Entry into the permanent exhibition is with a tour only, as the factory is operational. Tour times may differ from those listed on the website.
The art itself is nothing to write home about, but it's a pretty sweet venue. You can walk around a factory and then recline in a courtyard listening to Big Pun. They also do concerts here, which sounds amazing until you stop to consider the logistics of getting thousands of people to a place with no metro or parking.
The territory of the Museum is divided into two separate zones - permanent exposition on the factory territory and open public space
The factory space hidden from public eye is where the permanent exposition of wall paintings or "murals" made by contemporary artists is. Now it has more than 20 art works of modern street artists
in the middle of nowhere and there is really nothing nearby except a small petrol station. While it's a little bit of a trek to get to, it is definitively worth it.
I guess it depends on the year. In 2019 there's nothing special, not worth 400 rubles for entrance. I mean... The idea of street art is that people can enjoy it for free, no? Completely lost the message, place became a commercial touristy thing. Three stars for some artworks I've enjoyed. In general - disappointment.
Sucks, there are places much more interesting than that.
