The museum features many paintings of various artistic trends, carpets, including felting techniques, a few antique jewelry and sculptural compositions. There are not many people, it is spacious. 3 floors, the main exposition is on the 2nd, a little on the 3rd, on the ground floor there is a ticket office, souvenirs, a wardrobe, a cafe.
As for the impression, I will say that it is certainly not worth comparing with the famous art galleries, but the museum is worthy of attention and I can recommend visiting it.

The museum is quite large and interesting, but, unfortunately, not exciting. There are a lot of paintings and exhibits from different eras, authors and meanings. The structure of the museum itself does not have, you can get lost and not see everything, or vice versa, walk several times in the same place. In general, the museum is good, no more

Один из старых музеев города. Расположен в верхней части города, летом здание утопает в зелени, рядом остановка, речка. Приемлемая цена. Радует, что много нашей молодежи и иностранцев среди посетителей. Особая атмосфера, запах, и теплый воздух как то умиротворяет. Хочется никуда не спешить. Как в первый раз смотришь все картины, и думаешь, какое наследие нам оставили художники. На первом этаже можно приобрести картины. Есть кафе для перекуса. И бутик Ковров ручной работы, но это отдельная тема. В общем для отдыха рекомендую.

A wonderful museum, no doubt, but...
you can't take pictures with a camera!
There were stickers at the entrance forbidding filming with a video camera. There was no sticker that it was forbidden to take pictures with a camera! That is, the ban was from the words of one of the caretakers. The second one even announced that it was impossible to use a flash. I answer, my camera is without a flash, and I clarify, is it possible? No, they're responding. OK. I went to the wardrobe and handed over a backpack with an expensive camera, if anything. I don't know how they treated him there.
I went in, in general, on a light one. And in general, it was easy to move around the Museum. To say that there are few visitors is to say nothing. There are no crowds of Hermitage pilgrims (where they are allowed not only with cameras, but also with backpacks) and pilgrims of the Tretyakov Gallery (take pictures at least on Mamiya with a Kodak). And the respected Management of the wonderful Museum is aware that by ALLOWING you to photograph and shoot videos, tiktoks and other media, you are popularizing your Museum in particular and art in general! There would be more visitors! Maybe it's time to reconsider the Rules and approaches to promotion?
One of the serious advantages of the Museum.
Wonderful caretakers. Many people look great and are friendly! And this is very important. One caretaker generously opened the door of the temporary exhibition hall, despite the time (there were 10-15 minutes left before the Museum closed). And by the way, I am very grateful to her for this, because I discovered the most talented author - Askar Nurbolat!
The low cost of entry (about $ 1) is an undoubted plus!

Данный храм искусств расположены в центре города. В музее представлено много картин, различных направлений искусства. Разные художники, разные картины, позволили увидеть прошлое. Увидел знакомую Алма-Ату , такой какой она уже не будет. Музей большой, на двух этажах разные залы. По этой причине нужно быть готовым много ходить. Сотрудники музея в каждом зале, наблюдают чтобы посетители не трогали экспонаты. Интересно почему в музее возникает большое желание потрогать руками какой-нибудь старинный предмет? Кроме того таблички с информацией написаны мелким шрифтом и размещены рядом с экспонатами, поэтому нужно приближаться к картинам. Сотрудники музея в это момент напрягаются. Предлагаю информативные таблички доработать, вынести их вперёд от картин.

Be sure to visit this museum!!! It's even beautiful here in the toilet, specially photographed.
During one visit, we were able to see only part of the halls, since the museum is large, and each exhibit is so amazing that we want to look at it for a long time.
I really liked the gallery in which paintings with views of Almaty are collected. How much love artists have for the city, you stand and rejoice and feel joy for the city, for its inhabitants then and today, for yourself.
An excellent photo exhibition by a Spanish photographer, although not everyone will appreciate the little things that the photographer paid attention to and saved.
The cost of tickets to the museum is 1200, this is for two adults and a schoolboy child.

An interesting idea with moving pictures, I wanted to see more paintings, but I got to an exhibition of weaving products. And unfortunately I got to the moment when the director and the delegation were going around the museum... Well, you know, they were kicked out of one hall, it was unpleasant, the overall impression immediately fell.

В музее проходила выставка замечательного художника авангардиста Калмыкова. Ни на что непохожий стиль письма выдаёт в художнике очень яркую индивидуальность. Самобытное видение и потрясающие образы удивили. Последний представитель Серебряного века, доживший до 60-х годов, он ходил в чудаковатых прикидах, продолжая традиции футуристов вообще и Бурляка, в частности.
В музее есть прекрасная коллекция: Лентулова, Кончаловского, Машкова, Петрова-Водкина, Лансере,Фалька !!!!!!
Много прекрасных картин казахских художников, особенно впечатляют полотна, изображающие лошадей, просторы , быт страны. Можно составить представление о культуре, истории Казахстана.
Есть и минусы: обшарпанные полы, бабушки в каких-то непонятных нарядах в каждом зале, в магазине тускло, нет аудиогида, нет WiFi, нет указателей, если такси подвозит не к парадному входу. Очень много Советского наследия , не украшающего музей. И почему-то скульптура пишущего что-то Ленина напротив Фалька ни с того , ни с сего. Его точно надо убрать в чулан. Достаньте из запасников своих авторов. Сейчас очень много приезжает в город молодых москвичей, а вслед за ними и их мам. А они очень многие интересуются искусством. Большое спасибо за такой музей. У него прекрасное будущее.
