Opening date to be announced
Over the past few decades, many of Moscow’s 70-plus billionaires have gone abroad to establish art enterprises. Leonid Mikhelson is turning that tide with the opening, a stone’s throw from the Kremlin, of GES-2, a second home for his Venice-based V-A-C Foundation.
The architect Renzo Piano has spent five years transforming a disused 20,000-square-metre power station into V-A-C’s new artistic hub, with gallery spaces and a 420-seat, glass-fronted playhouse as well as a library, learning centre, residency block and restaurant. A former vodka warehouse nearby will become a centre of ‘experimentation and cultural production’ for the local creative community.

Claude Lévêque, a decorated artist who represented France at the 2009 Venice Biennale, has suspended his relationship with his gallery and seen his work permanently removed from the walls of a museum in Geneva in light of an ongoing criminal investigation by French prosecutors.
The Bobigny public prosecutor’s office confirmed to Artnet News that local police launched a preliminary investigation into Lévêque for “acts of rape and sexual assault on minors under the age of 15” in May 2019.
