About the Gallery
Founded 2019 in Berlin and curated by Irina Rusinovich, HAZE.GALLERY is a hybrid art platform that combines a physical gallery presence with a strong digital dimension.
Evolving from a traditional gallery into a global curatorial and media platform, HAZEGALLERY merges offline and online exhibitions, pop-up shows, and editorial storytelling to present a diverse range of contemporary art.
In dialogue with PURPLEHAZE Magazine, the gallery curates exhibitions that highlight both emerging and mid-career artists working across painting, photography, and interdisciplinary practices.Beyond its Berlin base, HAZE.GALLERY hosts pop-up exhibitions in international locations and participates regularly in art fairs, creating opportunities for cross-cultural exchange and visibility.
About CEO Irina Rusinovich
Editor-in-Chief, PURPLEHAZE Magazine | Founder & Gallerist, HAZEGALLERY
Irina Rusinovich is an editor, gallerist, and curator based in Berlin, working across the international contemporary art circuit. Born in Moscow, she moved to Germany as a child, later studying business and communications at UCL London and completing a course at Sotheby's before pursuing curatorial studies at UdK Berlin. Her practice treats editorial selection and gallery work as two instruments of one authorial voice, selecting artists, curating exhibitions, conducting interviews, and building the platforms that make them visible.
Her editorial path began in 2015, when she founded and led Cabinet de l'Art as editor-in-chief. In 2017 she launched PURPLEHAZE Magazine, which she continues to run as editor-in-chief. Two years later she founded HAZE.GALLERY in Berlin, a project that has since evolved from a fixed gallery space into a nomadic curatorial platform staging pop-up pop-up exhibitions internationally.
Our mission is to create accessible, immersive, and critically engaged art experiences, offering artists not only exposure but also editorial depth, professional presentation, and community engagement. Each exhibition becomes a story one that lives both within the physical space and in the broader digital and editorial ecosystem shaped by HAZE.
