MYTH Gallery is a contemporary art gallery founded in 2019 in St. Petersburg. The gallery helps foster the careers of emerging Russian artists and maintains long-term representation. MYTH implements a diverse program with solo and group exhibitions specializing in experimental and groundbreaking projects. The multiple group curatorial projects aim to support the curators; we strongly believe that emerging curators are those specialists who change the environment and take artists to a higher professional level.
Among our goals is to increase the quantity of Russian contemporary art connoisseurs and collectors, working with the international and Russian communities. The gallery maintains its global focus by participating in international art fairs, museum projects, and institutional collaborations in order to foster dialogues with new audiences.
MYTH Gallery is located in St. Petersburg, a tenement house in the historic center. In keeping with the building’s modern elegance, original 1900s elements have been preserved, including the stucco ceiling and original tiled stove.
The acronym in the gallery title means “My Young True Heroes,” because we believe that over the years our artists will become a part of art history, the real heroes. Many of our artists have participated in international exhibitions in Amsterdam, Basel, Berlin, Hamburg, London, New York, Paris, Vienne, and Zurich.
