This display of human-form sculptures in The Museum of Russian Art's Fireside Gallery features fourteen works by Naum Mogilevsky. The sculptures were recently added to the Museum's growing permanent collection through a generous gift from the artist's nephew, Boris Mogilevsky and are on view for the very first time publicly.The objects included in this exhibition are drawn from the sculptor's late period and were donated to The Museum of Russian Art in 2010. Also featured are the sculptor's plaster studies and photographs of his studio in Leningrad taken in the late 1960s.
