Marat Khusnullin at a meeting with the President on the progress of creating cultural, educational and museum complexes.
On Oktyabrsky Island in Kaliningrad, as part of a cluster, a building of the branch of the Russian State Institute of Performing Arts – the Baltic Higher School of Musical and Theatre Arts – was put into operation. Deputy Prime Minister Marat Khusnullin reported this to President Vladimir Putin at a meeting on the progress of creating cultural, educational and museum complexes.
“In general, the project, in terms of its parameters – the size of the area, the number of objects, architectural solutions, the geography of implementation, the latest multimedia and technological equipment – is the largest cultural construction project in the history of the country. We hope that all the objects that are being created within the cluster will become new cultural symbols of Russia. One of such clusters is being developed in Kaliningrad. Another building, a branch of RGISI – the Baltic Higher School of Musical and Theatre Arts, has been put into operation there. It will soon begin accepting its first students,” said Marat Khusnullin.
Earlier, a branch of the Tretyakov Gallery opened as part of the cluster in Kaliningrad. In addition, branches of the Moscow State Academy of Choreography and the Central Music School – the Baltic Academy of Performing Arts, a comprehensive school with a swimming pool, two boarding schools for students and a dormitory for students, as well as five apartment buildings for teachers and artists of the cultural cluster are ready. Construction of a branch of the Bolshoi Theater with a production and warehouse complex is ongoing. All cluster facilities with a total area of about 127 thousand square meters will create a single urban space with a zone for walking and recreation.
The customer for the construction of the clusters is the National Cultural Heritage Foundation for Social and Cultural Projects, and the general contractor is the Stroytransgaz group of companies.
