Triumph. Selected projects. Volume 1
Group exhibition

Triumph gallery
Triumph Gallery, a flagship private institution on the Russian contemporary art market, announces a major anniversary project titled Triumph. Selected Projects. Looking back at the gallery’s 20-year history, the exhibition offers unique insight into Triumph’s journey: from a conventional private gallery to a hybrid platform that combines commercial foundations with a museum-oriented and research-based approach.
The anniversary exhibition has a two-part narrative structure — the two “volumes” each unpack a particular domain that defines Triumph’s unique operations as a whole. The project relies on an exclusive archival body of materials: photo and video documentation of exhibitions, starting from 2006 and to the present day. This systematic archival method — a rare undertaking in the Russian gallery practices — has enabled the curators to reconstruct the institution’s history and employ paraphrases, replicas of landmark installations, and show a selection of artworks that became milestones in the careers of key contemporary artists.

Volume I: Formative Years and Individual Trajectories
The first part of the exhibition, opening the anniversary project, focuses on artists who helped shape the gallery’s identity, the artists who have worked with Triumph for many years or whose careers the gallery helped launch. The exposition unfolds as a non-linear narrative, a space composited from multiple individual artistic lives. Visitors are greeted by a monumental installation by AES+F. The way the installation is set out recreates precisely the group’s landmark 2006 exhibition, while the accompanying video work The Feast of Trimalchio, shown at the 53rd Venice Biennale, is a nod to the international dimension of the gallery’s scope.

The gallery’s practice of producing large-scale projects shows up in works by the art group Tanatos Banionis and by Alexey Beliaev-Gintovt. A special place in the exhibition is given to Dmitry Gutov’s works from the series Rembrandt. A Different Perspective, first presented at the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts, as well as works by Alexander Brodsky. His piece Pigeon. In Imitation of Irina Zatulovskaya reveals an atypical facet of the artist’s practice.
Further advancement of artistic practices is illustrated through works by Recycle Group that were shown at the Venice Biennale. The anniversary project showcases Enlightener 7 and Cultural Layer, presented alongside works by Keito Yamaguchi, Yumiko Ono, Alexey Vasilyev, and others. The gallery staircase serves as a bridge between eras and a display of paintings by “Triumph’s original artists” — Alexander Yakut, as well as Alexander Vinogradov and Vladimir Dubossarsky.

An important chapter in Volume I is dedicated to projects born within the gallery’s special programs: Launchpad, Fathers and Sons, Young Lions, and Great Expectations — aimed at discovering and supporting new talent. A direct quote from Roman Mokrov’s video Pastoral takes the viewer back to 2013, to the Moscow Manege, an early starting point of these programs. These older initiatives are brought into a contemporaneous context through juxtaposition with works by Anka Akhalaya, Maria Safronova, and Daria Barybina, whose solo exhibitions at MMOMA have been among the most notable events of the more recent years.
A distinctive characteristic of Triumph. Selected Projects is the opportunity to experience works in the original context of their first public appearance. The archival section of Volume I includes early works by Anatoly Belkin, Danya Akulin, Tatiana Hengstler, and Maxim Ksuta, alongside works by international stars such as Damien Hirst and Jake and Dinos Chapman.
As special commission to mark the anniversary, several artists have created “paraphrases” of their landmark projects. Andrey Berger has redone the mural in the gallery’s staircase, meticulously recreating the atmosphere of his first exhibition in 2018. CrocodilePOWER and the artist Alexey Vasilyev have prepared special versions of their 2013 works, reflecting on a decade of collaboration.
