Chief Curator of the State Tretyakov Gallery Tatyana Gorodkova explained GZT.RU, what works for the residences do not pick their owners or members of the staff and workers of museums. "This is not about personal taste," - she said.
Works from the Tretyakov Gallery, is also located in one of the president's residence. Dmitry Medvedev, has the opportunity to admire the now 15 exhibits from the State Tretyakov Gallery, they are all in the Kremlin residence. "This 11 paintings and four sculptures," - explained Gorodkova. Among these exhibits on a work by Ivan Aivazovsky, Ivan Shishkin, Isaak Brodsky and Julia clover.
"We picked up the picture, depending on the premises, which would provide these particular products", - told Gordkova. The works are exhibited in the premises, where the international negotiations, meetings at the state level and other official events. "These areas defined architecture, depends on the scale and size of pieces that we pick up there", - explained the chief curator of the State Tretyakov Gallery.
She noted that all pictures are under glass, "this additional protection." In addition, the museum staff monitor to frame, framed paintings, are consistent with the "time and style of the spaces in which they are exposed." It is also important to match pictures to each other, so that "selected works of one era, they are similar stylistically.
The practice of transferring artwork to a temporary exhibit, told Gorodkova, "dates back to Soviet times." Then in the Kremlin, exhibited a large canvas by Boris Johanson "Speech of Vladimir Ilyich Lenin at the Third Congress of the Communist Youth League", a huge canvas 3,5 x 5 meters, as well as a picture of Valentin Serov's "Lenin on the Tribune from the Tretyakov Gallery. Since the beginning of the restructuring they were taken back to his native museum "with a mutual desire."
In times of Boris Yeltsin, after the reconstruction of the Grand Kremlin Palace, this practice has resumed, and while it lasts. Gorodkova said that under Yeltsin "was a question of small landscapes, mainly in the second half of XIX century". Then Shishkin, Aivazovsky and others and settled in the Kremlin.
Transferring pictures requires a set of documents
All the museums of Russia issued stored in their collections of works for the exposure time only legally, the keeper stressed TG. "The issuance of all the works from the museum's collections is a legal concept. It is implemented according to the law of the Museum Fund of the Russian Federation. This order is one where we did not give works of art "- she explained.
In each case, specifies the conditions for their preservation and control of the museum staff. "Between the Museum and the agency that assumes responsibility, is a contract which spells out all conditions", - told Gorodkova.
"If the period of exposure long enough, then we must envisage the possibility of regular monitoring of safety of our experts - said the keeper .- In each case, determined by how often our experts will go to the place and check the condition of the works. They carefully inspect each product, compare with previous data and assess the condition of it is now. "
The fact the state of the exhibit was at the time of transfer, you can see from the detailed safety passport ", which has a text description and image of the object. At the time of the transfer of both parties arrange a joint checking and sign acts, which contain a detailed description of the status of each piece.
Gorodkova also explained that the contract drawn up by the museum, sometimes there is such a clause: "The Museum reserves the right to early termination of exposure, if a number of reasons, sometimes not directly related to the conditions of exposure, we decide that it is better to make it product left the display and returned home. " She said that such situations are "rare, but happens."
The Museum is preparing a package of documents sent to the Ministry of Culture for permission for temporary extradition. In this package, the main contract between the museum and the host protocol and Restoration Council of the Museum. Restoration Council decides on the issuance of specific products. This collegial body determines whether to issue a museum piece or not, and all the advice on packing, transporting, exhibiting, and so on.

For example, in the U.S. each new president may, on its own to decorate their personal rooms, as well as left and right wings of the White House pictures by selecting them from the collections of leading American museums. They "borrow" the canvas at the time in office. In this case, the tastes of presidents and their spouses are usually made public.
Michelle Obama, intending to settle in the White House, along with the decorator Michael Smith has carefully examined the site of the National Gallery of Art, the Museum and Sculpture Garden and the Smithsonian Hirschhorn Museum of American Art.
