Founders
Tatiana Kolodzei, along with supporters from the US and Europe (including Norton Dodge), formed the Kolodzei Art Foundation shortly before the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Tatiana's daughter, Natalia Kolodzei (an Honorary Member of the Russian Academy of Arts), is the Executive Director. Robb Report called Natalia Kolodzei "the person to know" regarding Russian art, and "one of the most influential of Russia's young cultural figures."
