About Me
A multicultural center The Dom Center ("Dom" means "house" in Russian) was founded in May 1999, and since then has played a key role in Moscow’s cultural life. Unlike institutional cultural centers, the Dom focuses especially on avant-garde and ethnic music, but also includes other performing arts.All sorts of events are held at the Dom : concerts of music by contemporary composers, musicians, improvisation, noise and electronic music , music from world music or purely ethnic music.
There is also experimental and musical theater, contemporary dance. Moreover, the Dom offers plastic arts exhibition and video projections.The Dom provides foreign and Russian contemporary artists with the opportunity to express their ideas in unique events, festivals, tours and workshops. Above all, the Dom is a platform, a place where people meet, where artists meet, where artists meet the public, which often gives rise to new initiatives and types of cooperation. Since it opened the Center has developed close ties with foreign organizations specialized in different spheres of contemporary art (Switzerland, Germany, France, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Austria, Great Britain, United States, Korea, Japan as well as the all the republics of the CIS and the different regions of Russia as far away as Eastern Siberia).The Dom Cultural Center was set up at the individual initiative of an enthusiastic local producer who had been pursuing his activities in avant-garde music for twenty years, of graphic artists involved in the new trend in Moscow, and a businessman wishing to invest in an original project in the cultural life of the Russian capital.
