The photo exhibition of the winners of “The Picture of the World”, the International Contest for Young Artists

The initiative to organize the international contest for artists comes from Innopraktika. The project is implemented together with the State Tretyakov Gallery and Saint Petersburg Repin Academy of Arts; the general partner is Gazprombank JSC.

 “The Picture of the World” is aimed to support the young authors aged between 18 and 25 striving to comprehend the relevant social, cultural, and historical themes and their creative embodiment. The key theme of the project is “Values of my nation as a part of the global human culture”. The creative contest is held in three categories: Painting, Graphics, and Digital Art. Alongside with the artistic mastery, the jury also pays шspecial attention to the depth of the concept, and the ability of the author to develop the selected idea. 

The first contest had a great success in 2024-2025 and gathered nearly 1 500 works of young artists from 65 countries. Participants from Europe, Americas and South-Eastern Asia showed their ability to express the unique character of their cultures through the universal language of art.

Upon the results of the selection, the creative council of the contest named 14 finalists from Russia, China, Vietnam, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Livia, and the USA. Winners’ works were exhibited in the Kaliningrad branch of the State Tretyakov Gallery in June and July 2025. The exposition became a colourful cultural event as it was visited by more than 50 000 people.

The art project “Russia. The Power of Natural Resources”

The exposition is devoted to the role of the Russian natural resources within the context of technological development and international cooperation. Its basis is works by the artist Natalia Zemlyanaya from the Habitat series visualizing key mineral resources: oil, gas, nuclear energy, hydrogen, and rare earth metals.

The exposition is focused on the metaphysical comprehension of natural riches through the energy of colour and artistic forms. The works show interconnectedness between the resources, technological progress, and environmental responsibility. The project performs the strategical task as it supports the initiative “The BRICS Geological Platform”. It is used as a tool for communication between the research community, industry, and public, as it highlights the transfer from the resource-based economy to the technological leadership. 

The exposition is addressed to both the geology, energy, and sustainable development experts and to the everybody interested in modern art and its role in global problem solving.
