MOSCOW, November 29 - RIA Novosti. The reconstruction project of the State Museum of Fine Arts. Pushkin (Pushkin) in December will go on Glavgosexpertiza Russia, told RIA Novosti on Monday by its director, Irina Antonova.
"In mid-December we lease primarily to the examination, not even the entire whole, and part of it" - she said.
The museum's director said that "everything is given to very hard."
"Because this is a huge amount of work with utilities in the old district" - explained Antonova, and added that the process of harmonization is strongly inhibit the communication possibilities.
Architectural concept for the GMII developed by British architect Norman Foster, and she meant inclusion in the new museum complex architectural elements in high-tech style. For example, one of the most notable was to be the building of the exhibition center in a cinquefoil in place of the current petrol station opposite the Cathedral of Christ the Savior. However, a year ago, ex-mayor of Moscow Yury Luzhkov criticized the concept, and after it was suggested that the center will be built in the image of the Catherine Palace track, and even a museum complex that will be executed in a classical style.
"Set in a cinquefoil wonderful, I love it" - admitted again Antonov.
According to her, over time Foster made a few more options for the exhibition center to choose from. In this case, the Pushkin Museum director does not exclude that as a result there will be exactly cinquefoil.
As for the replica track of the palace, the Antonov expects that it will not be accurate.
Competition for the reconstruction of the Pushkin Museum in 2009, won the Foster and director Mosproject-5, Sergei Tkachenko.
