In an article in The New York Times, journalist Carey Goldberg said “There is no better interview subject than a man who just wants to make people happy. A man so brimming with energy that he repeats and re-repeats words of emphasis, a man with a mission so simple and sweet that it works for Americans and Russians and Indonesians alike. And there is no better art, to my taste, than art that radiates the same kind of joie de vivre so that it acts as a tonic on all those who see it, uplifting not only with its beauty but with an exuberance as potent as the blooming of northern plants in summer.
The Yuri Gorbachev Museum Tour, 2017-2023, is enjoying great success in the United States, South America, Russia, Ukraine, and Southeast Asia.
