The fair was visited by more than 50,000 people, which became an absolute record in the more than 10-year history of Cosmoscow. Jessica Gallery was awarded the “Best Booth” award at Cosmoscow 2024. The stand was an excerpt from a movie in which the hero rushes along a night road, shabby billboards, tired of the marketing burden, flash on the right, villages and rusty bicycles flash by on the left. Feeling tired of the glossy world and the promises of life. Many pictures accompany us forward into the foggy dawn. The stand concept, inspired by the work of “Viola” by Ivan Chemakin, was realized with the participation of Ilya Grishaev, Grekhta, Vera Svetlova and Nestor Engelke. The architecture of the stand belongs to the young designer Antonina Mazepa from Maze Studio.

SOUND UP performa: korowod, a unique multimedia event at the intersection of music, immersive theatre and video art, will feature artist Ilya Starilov, director Yuri Kvyatkovsky, band Zventa Sventana, and Folklore Ensemble of the Gnesin Academy exploring folklore in contemporary culture. For one hour, the musicians will embark on a fascinating journey from authentic songs of Russian villages to a techno party.

This season, the fair will present more than 1,500 works of contemporary art from 91 galleries. In addition, as part of the non-profit program, the Cosmoscow Foundation will show the projects of the winners of its 2024 programs: “Museum of the Year”, “Institution of the Year” and “Artist of the Year”. “Artist of the Year” - Alexandra Garth - will present the work “The Persistence of Fun and Dirt” in the form of a massive metal structure covered with wooden boards, the heavy frame of which supports horse figures placed around the perimeter. “Museum of the Year” - Volgo-Vyatka branch of the Pushkin Museum named after. A.S. Pushkin (Arsenal) - will offer visitors an interactive installation dedicated to the Arsenal library, which is expected to be transformed in the near future. “Institution of the Year” - the Center for Urban Culture (Perm) - will be presented with a stand with an expressive architectural design in the form of a rotunda. The inside of the building will be decorated with a variety of materials left over from projects created at the Central City Building over the past 8 years.
