The museum is full of famous artists, there is a collection of exhibits returned after the 2nd World War. Very interesting exhibitions dedicated to the Belarusian identity are held periodically.
before visiting the museum, it is necessary to read its history - how the collection was assembled, what happened to the museum during the war... The museum workers who invested in the National Art Museum are real heroes!

In order to get to the museum, I asked the phone to plot a route to the entrance... and the soulless apparatus led me to the doors, which have been closed to visitors for a couple of years... repair))
The administrator pointed out the right way and under the wave of impressions from the exhibition, I forgot a little morning misunderstanding))) And I recommend all new visitors to look at the museum's website, there is all the necessary information there)))
As you have already understood, the museum employs very responsive and kind people, attentive and unobtrusive. Things are accepted in the cloakroom, tickets are sold at the ticket office (on Monday with a 50% discount), and the controller kindly explains the route around the museum. Everything is quite simple if you understand that the expositions are located in two buildings connected by a passage and it is easier to see the exhibition first in one, and then go to the other.
It was with great pleasure that I watched the exhibition of folk costumes, women's and men's. In the 50s, scientists went to the villages to collect folklore, including one artist who painted costumes of rural residents. How beautiful it is, how many colors, inventions! The exhibition presents drawings and costumes that are placed on mannequins. You can also meditate in front of the screen and spy on the secret of how to tie a scarf on your head or wrap yourself with an embroidered sash.
The floor below is an exhibition of miniature sculpture: porcelain figurines of Soviet times are under glass. Fantastic memories from childhood)))
In the neighboring building, exhibitions of paintings are arranged on the following topics: the history of Belarus, the Soviet period, paintings by Russian artists, the creativity of the peoples of Southeast Asia.
It was interesting for me to see the exposition on the history of Belarus: Catholic clerics' robes, beautifully embroidered dresses; sculptures and paintings.
When I entered the hall of Russian painting, I almost burst into tears: a lot of paintings familiar from childhood, a lot of favorite faces, scenes, views ...
In general, the art museum is full of surprises)))
Thank you all so much for your hard work! Health to you! New curious visitors)))

Отличный музей, обязателен для посещения.Даже не знала, что в Минском музее такая прекрасная коллекция собрана. Часто ловила себя, что не ожидала встретить ту или иную работу.
Очень приятные смотрительницы, всё подскажут, как куда пройти, какие работы на каком этаже.
Заметила такую вещь, во всех музеях Беларуси, которые удалось посетить, очень приятные люди и, что самое приятное, они не ходят за тобой по пятам и не дышат в спину, как будто ты картину Рериха собираешься утащить. Чувствуешь себя спокойно.

A place that I think everyone needs to visit.

The museum is frozen in time. Around the 80s . There are three buildings here. Old, new and Special exhibition hall
It's very stuffy in the old building. Bad light (lamps on the ceiling in the center of the hall)
The new one is fresh and good, and the light is better
According to the paintings... Here are the classics of Russian art of the 19th century (they loved it in the USSR), a little icons (spirituality), a little Oriental (exotic), a little modern toothless art from the same 80s ...
In principle, there is something to look at, but it's boring here..

I always visit art galleries in the host cities, although I do not consider myself an expert in fine art.
The gallery building cannot be passed by without paying attention to it-it is really beautiful. The cost of the visit was 7 rubles, which is quite a reasonable price.

Музей приятно удивил очень достойной и хорошо подобранной коллекцией и интересными временными экспозициями. Отдельно хочется отметить приятный и вежливый персонал. Что можно было бы улучшить: не хватило схемы музея или небольшого флаера с картой и описанием по залам, в сувенирном хотелось бы увидеть собственную книгу или брошюру музея о коллекции.

Единственное, смотрители музея ну очень любят обсуждать посетителей прямо при них, думая, что их не слышат или не понимают.
