To the 100th anniversary of Irina Antonova
This article is dedicated to the legendary Russian museum figure Irina Antonova (20.03.1922 —
30.11.2020), who worked at the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts for 75 years, 52 years of
which as its director. The development of the Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts under the
leadership of Irina Antonova is seen by the author of this article as part of the evolution of
museum work in the Soviet Union and the Russian Federation. The article emphasizes that the Pushkin Museum was often ahead of its time, laying the groundwork for major changes. For
example, with the opening of the Museum of Private Collections as part of the State Museum
of Fine Arts, the rehabilitation of private collecting in the country took place. The December
Nights festival created by Irina Antonova in collaboration with the brilliant pianist Svyatoslav
Richter in 1981 became a matrix of art festivals that took place in various museums of the
country during the following decades. The Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts was charged
with promoting Western art in the USSR, of which it brilliantly took the advantage when
started displaying works by Picasso, Matisse, Leonardo da Vinci’s Mona Lisa, masterpieces
of drawing from the Albertina Museum in Vienna, Western European and American paintings
from American museums and others famous exhibitions. This is the visible part of Irina
Antonova’s dynamic activity. She approached academic work no less thoroughly, as well as the
organization of study and cataloguing of the collection of the State Museum of Fine Arts. And,
of course, much credit must go to Irina Antonova for preparing the program for the development
and reconstruction of the Pushkin Museum, which has been repeatedly revised and is
being finalized before our very eyes under the direction of Marina Loshak

Assessing Conditions for Influence of Interest Groups in the EU. IHS Political Science Series: 2005, 106
An important factor for the ability of interest groups to contribute to democratic decisionmaking is the balance between their input and the political autonomy of decision-makers. This article focuses on the results of four case studies of decision-making in the fields of IT and transport in the EU. These case studies show that private actors do contribute to decision-making, but they are less influential for EU politics than anticipated. Based on the case studies, this article assesses how and to what extent interest groups contribute to decision-making in the two sectors, in the context of the EU’s political structure and, notably, its alleged democratic deficit
