Foster + Partners has been commissioned to design an ambitious, $177 million masterplan for the Pushkin Museum of Fine Arts, the largest museum of European art in Moscow. The institution’s collection includes works by Rembrandt, Piranesi, Renoir, Monet, Gauguin, and Van Gogh, as well as Egyptian antiquities. The goal of the project is not only to increase exhibition and archive space, but to develop the site into a vibrant cultural quarter.
