Maria Golosnaya (b. 1996) is a Moscow-based painter whose practice is a deep and continuous inquiry into the transformation of cultural heritage. Her artistic journey began with a thorough mastery of classical techniques at the Ilya Glazunov Russian Academy of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture, which she later re-evaluated through contemporary frameworks. She has exhibited her work at the New Tretyakov Gallery in Moscow and the MARQ Museum in Argentina, and participated in art fairs like Miami Art Basel (Miami, 2022) and the international contemporary Blazar art fair (Moscow, 2024).
