Story

Initially, in 1956, the USSR Government issued a decree on the construction of two separate buildings - for the Tretyakov Gallery and for the Exhibition Building of the Union of Artists. However, this decision was later revised in favor of one exhibition complex for both galleries. The main architects of the project were N. Sukoyan and Y. Sheverdyaev, and several research institutes were also involved in the work. The project was approved in 1964, and construction began a year later. The opening of the Central House of Artists took place in 1979.

Part of the building is occupied by the Tretyakov Gallery: a department is located here that houses part of its permanent exhibition dedicated to Russian art of the 20th century.
