Shusha Fine Art Museum

The Shusha Fine Art Museum is located in the eponymous city in Azerbaijan.

It was inaugurated on 9 May 2013 (anniversary of the Battle of Shushi of 1992) during the First Nagorno Karabakh War and its establishment is due to the action of Grigori Gabrielyants, after whom the city's geological museum is also named, who devoted his activity to the opening of the venue since 2010.

Building

The museum is housed in a historic building, formerly used as an inn. At the back a large green space hosts sculptures created by international artists during the editions of the symposium named after Hakob Gyurdjyan.

Exhibition

The museum collects over six hundred works, resulting from private donations, from artists of various nationalities (Armenia, Georgia, Russia, Lithuania, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Poland, France, USA, Ethiopia, Mongolia, Egypt, Indonesia, Haiti, Madagascar). The Artsakh artists have an exclusive exhibition space.
