The art project "In the Name of Crafts. Immersive Chronicle of Traditions", created with the support of the Presidential Fund for Cultural Initiatives, was presented by the All-Russian Museum of Decorative Arts at the RUSSIA EXPO.

The series of videos, shot in the style of video art, shows crafts of Russia in such materials as wood, ceramics, textiles, metal, stone, glass, and bone. Highly artistic filming, author's music and sound design create the effect of immersion in the meditative process of creation. 

"Last year the museum opened a large exposition of art crafts of Russia. The main concept of this exposition is to show crafts not as ethnographic artifacts, but as works of art, an aesthetic phenomenon of Russian culture. The media project is a continuation of the exposition and presents the whole process of creating these works, the beauty in the smallest details," said Natalia Strizhkova, head of the department of publishing activities and grant projects of the All-Russian Museum of Decorative Arts.

The International RUSSIA EXPO is the most important achievements of the country gathered in one place. During the whole period of the Exposition, guests are welcomed with cultural events, a rich business and educational program. The expositions of 89 Russian regions, leading federal agencies, corporations and public organizations are presented to the visitors. More than 7 million people have already visited the Exposition. The International RUSSIA EXPO takes place at VDNH in Moscow from November 4 to July 8.
