The Museum "Zair Azgur Memorial Studio"

The museum was the home and studio of well-known Soviet sculptor Zair Azgur. The “Zair Azgur Memorial Studio” is a unique place as it is the only monographic museum in Belarus founded on the basis of the workshop of the academy of arts and Azgur’s private studio. The building was built for this purpose in 1984 and in 1996, after the death of the sculptor, became the museum. This workshop was Azgur's most favourite one as it constantly inspired him on creating his masterpieces.
