On September 5, 1991, the Moscow public attended an opening of a new gallery. However, upon arriving at the attic of a house on Trekhprudny Lane, they saw neither paintings nor installations; they found two homeless people instead. Those typical representatives of the homeless class were busy with their usual affairs: drinking cheap wine, swearing, sucking on stinking cigarette-butts, paying no attention to the public. Organized by Konstantin Reunov and Avdey Ter-Oganian, that act, entitled Mercy opened one of the most important projects of the 1990s, the place known as the Gallery on Trekhprudny Lane.
