Moscow. Sergei Kapkov, who was appointed last spring as the director of the iconic Stalin-era Gorky Park and transformed it, within months, from a symbol of post-Soviet decline into a trendy venue for nature and public art—thanks to funding from billionaire Roman Abramovich—has been appointed head of Moscow's culture department. Kapkov replaces Sergei Khudyakov, who has directed the department since 2001.

As part of Kapkov’s transformation of Gorky Park, the Garage Center for Contemporary Culture, the non-profit art space run by Abramovich’s partner Dasha Zhukova, is in the process of moving into a 1920s agricultural fair pavilion on the grounds. The Garage has already organised “Necessary Art”, one of the special projects of the Fourth Moscow Biennale of Contemporary Art (until 4 December), in the park.
