Hi, smart people
Recently, Moore was hit by a piece of news on Moments - Dasha Zhukova, the ex-wife of the super-rich Abramovich, is engaged. !
If you ask me who Dasha Zhukova is, I will tell you that Zhukova is the number one socialite in Russia and is good at collecting top men and top works of art.
Her father is the Russian oil tycoon Zhukov; her ex-boyfriend is Safin, the former world No. 1 tennis player who defeated Federer; her ex-husband is Abramovich, the owner of Chelsea Football Club in England; her engagement partner this time is a boat Queen Tavros Niachos III
Talking about the background of Tavros Niachos III! My family comes from a shipping family, and my grandfather is Tavros Niarchos, one of the seven greatest shipping kings in the world.
Shipping King Tavros Niachos
In addition to shipping, another famous investment of the Niachos family is art collection. From the mid-1950s to the 1960s, Ship King collected many works by Impressionist masters such as Cézanne, Degas, Monet, and Gauguin. He is also the private collector with the largest number of Van Gogh paintings in the world. .

With such a family background, the third generation young master has had girlfriends who are all top goddesses in the circle. .
For example, Mary-Kate Olsen, one of the three Olsen sisters;
American socialite Paris Hilton;
Australian supermodel Jesse Car Hart.
The Third Young Master is not only a third-generation rich man and a third-generation collector, he is also a proper goddess harvester. Looking back at our Zhukova who is good at collecting top men and works of art, the two are simply a master meeting a master, a match made in heaven.
Today we will talk about this number one Russian socialite whose love is better than idol dramas and whose career is better than workplace dramas.
Dasha·Russia’s number one supermodel·Zhukova
▼
Dasha Zhukova was born in Moscow in 1981, her father is Russian Oil tycoon Alexander Radkin Zhukov, whose mother is a molecular biologist, retired and taught at UCLA.
His parents divorced when he was three years old, and he came to the United States with his mother at the age of ten. He then entered the University of California, Santa Barbara and received a degree in Slavic studies and literature.
After graduating from university, she entered the University of London to study naturopathic medicine. At the same time, with the help of her father, she entered the London socialite circle. Afterwards, Zhukova simply interrupted her studies and focused on developing in the socialite circle. Although, she was once just a little-known social flower.
Although the temple is small, fortunately Zhu Kewa’s “Sutra” is pretty good. She is not a Russian-style beauty, but she has a touch of intellectuality about her body. Coupled with the right thick lips, Zhukova smiles gently and relieves boredom, and her expression is restrained and a little sexy. Coupled with the intellectual upbringing she received from her mother since childhood, it is definitely not an exaggeration to say that Zhukova is both beautiful and intelligent.
Zhukova really became known to the public as a socialite because her relationship with Safin, the then-popular Russian tennis star, was exposed. Safin is famous for his two "magic weapons" in the media circle, one is tennis and the other is women.
In the tennis world, Safin is the "tennis czar" who defeated Federer to win the Grand Slam championship. He is also the Razzie winner who broke a record of 87 rackets in one year due to his hot temper. As for women, he is a love prodigal who can say without shame that "a woman's shelf life is only one week."
But such a prodigal son with a hot temper and no lasting focus on women became more attentive after meeting Zhukova. She no longer goes to nightclubs and only focuses on Zhukova. She is often mentioned in interviews. But the two finally broke up after dating for more than a year due to personality issues.
After her romance with Safin ended, Zhukova met one of the most important men in her life - Roman Abramovich.
Abramovich, this name is like a god in the business, political and sports circles.
He is a Russian super oligarch who made his fortune from oil and is also the owner of the famous British Chelsea Football Club. After becoming an Israeli citizen for various reasons, he easily became the richest man in Israel.
There is a 15-year age difference between Zhukova and Abu. They met at Zhukova’s father’s New Year’s party in 2005, and their relationship quickly heated up after that.
Abramovich, who was still married at the time, spent two years fighting a divorce lawsuit with his wife for this relationship, and finally paid his wife a breakup fee of 1 billion pounds (equivalent to 9 billion yuan). . This breakup fee was considered the most expensive divorce breakup fee in the world at the time.
However, this record has been broken by the $144 billion divorce case of the Amazon founder.
Abu and his ex-wife
The two did not make a high-profile appearance after getting together. The paparazzi did not know that they were married and had children for a time, and they did not react until long after the second child was born. Come over, and it has been 6 years since the two fell in love and got married.
Zhu Ke can tame the lovey-dovey and fiery tennis czar Safin, make oligarch Abramovich spend 9 billion pounds to divorce him, and get the third generation of "Goddess Harvester" to get engaged. This kind of Zhu Ke The baby is definitely not just a socialite with the key to gold soup in her mouth.
Behind the glamorous appearance of a socialite is her intelligence and ambition. Just as an online art blogger said when commenting on Zhukova, "Even if a daughter of a fighting nation is born with a golden key in her mouth, there must still be a mouthful of vodka in her spoon."
The super It Girl that cannot be ignored
In a book called "Russian Style", the author Evelina Khromtchenko introduces Russia's representative characters and styles in order of 26 English letters.
The letter "B" stands for Ballet, "G" is for Gagarin, the first person to travel in space, and "Z" is for Dasha Zhukova ( Zhukova), calling her "a woman who cannot be ignored."
What "cannot be ignored" about Zhu Kewa is not that she was born rich, nor that she can win top male stars, but that she can rely on her outstanding business capabilities to make a name for herself in European and American social circles and fashion. The art circle and even the art circle are flourishing.
While she is a businesswoman, she is also a fashion brand founder, magazine editor, collector, and philanthropist.
Before 2005, Zhukova was just a well-behaved socialite in front of the world, living in the halo of others. Everyone talked about her as "the daughter of the oil tycoon Zhukov", "Safin's ex-girlfriend", "the current girlfriend of the oligarch Abu"... At that time, Zhukova could not have a name in Vanity Fair.
This situation changed in 2006. Zhu Kewa and her best friend Christina Tang founded the trendy brand Kova&T, which specializes in making latex pantyhose that fit well and are easy to wear.
After it was launched, it quickly became popular and occupied the market, and also gained celebrity fans such as Kate Moss, Rihanna, and the Olsen sisters.
Regarding the popularity of Kova&T, Zhukova was very calm. In her opinion, this was just the result of unintentional interference. “I had no intention of getting into the fashion industry, I just couldn’t find the clothes I wanted.”
So it didn’t take long for Zhukova to announce that she would no longer be involved in Kova&T’s affairs, and the brand was later removed from the shelves by Net-A-Porter.
Zhu Kewa and Christina Tang, the latter’s father is Deng Yongqiang who founded “Shanghai Tang”
The truly turning year for Zhu Kewa’s career was 2008. This year can be called the first year that she truly established a foothold in the art and fashion circles.
In June of this year, the garage museum she founded was officially opened; more than half a year later, she was hired by the fashion magazine "Pop" as the magazine's editor-in-chief.
"Pop" magazine is a British fashion magazine founded in 2000 by Ashley Heath and Katie Grand. In 2008, it suffered serious losses due to the financial crisis. Katie Grand, one of the main founders, left with many old employees to start a new business. The heavy losses to the economy and team personnel have left Pop in dire straits.
At this time, "Pop" is in urgent need of a new helmsman to revive its content. So another main creator Ashley Heath extended an invitation to Zhukova. In the eyes of others, inviting Zhukova as editor-in-chief is not a good idea, because she is not an editor and may have serious flaws in her ability in this area.
But for Ashley Heath, these are not the key. The key is that Zhukova has multiple international factors that can help "Pop" open up the situation. Zhukova herself, although a little surprised at first, accepted it.
The starting point was simple. She and her friends once planned to launch a magazine, but in the end it was nothing. So when the opportunity came, she decided to give it a try.
After taking office, Zhukova focused the magazine’s content on art, contemporary culture and all things related to fashion and globalization.
In the first issue of the article, Zhukova took a different approach and invited the then popular 13-year-old fashion blogger Tavi Gevinson to shoot the cover of the magazine. As an emerging darling in the fashion industry, Taiwei's blockbuster in "Pop" immediately received praise from many readers and industry insiders.

Zhukova’s momentum and reputation as the editor-in-chief of “Pop” also began. Under this momentum, Zhukova led more than 70 people under her command and worked hard together in less than half a year, turning "Pop" from a loss to even. By the end of 2009, the circulation of each issue of the magazine exceeded 80,000, and it returned to the top 10 most popular fashion magazines among British women.
Russia’s Czarina of Contemporary Art
Even with a gratifying record, Zhukova no longer wants to fight after helping “Pop” get out of trouble. In November 2010, Zhukova resigned from "Pop" and withdrew from the fashion industry, and then devoted herself to her "true love" - ??contemporary art.
For a socialite who is not an art major and spends most of her time socializing and partying, it is unusual for her to consider art investment as her career destination.
When asked why she became interested in contemporary art, Zhukova said it was because she was influenced by her father a lot while growing up.
Although his father Zhukov was a big businessman who made his fortune from oil, he secretly liked architecture and contemporary art very much, so he collected many famous paintings at home.
Zhukova, who has been exposed to such an environment since childhood and has never studied systematically, is also very familiar with art. In addition, many of the friends she has made as an adult are experts in various art fields, so Zhukova has a very broad vision in this area.
Regarding the outside world’s doubts about her artistic taste and artistic appreciation, she has a famous saying: “I am not an art major, and I can’t remember every artist’s name. But for the works I like, I remember every detail very clearly.”

After marriage, her husband Abramovich was with her. Under the influence, the previous buying of real estate, hotels, airplanes, and sports teams began to shift to the international art auction market. With Zhukova's good taste and Abu's money, the couple always makes extraordinary purchases in the auction market.
At the Sotheby's auction on May 14, 2008, Abramovich bought two famous paintings at a high price: Francis Bacon's "Triptych 1976" for $84.6 million, a record at the time The transaction price record for pre-war art;
Another painting, "The Sleeping Benefit Manager" by Lucian Freud, was sold for $33.6 million, setting a record Record price for a work by a living artist.
Lucian Freud is the most influential artist of our time, and even the Queen of England was his model
A month later, Abramovich provided funds and Zhukova contributed The established art institution "Garage" Contemporary Cultural Center was officially opened in Moscow. This exhibition hall has also become Russia's first contemporary art institution.
Regarding the original intention of creating "Garage", Zhukova mentioned in an interview that due to historical reasons, Russia has been in cultural isolation for a long time, and the knowledge of contemporary art is completely blank.
After the disintegration of the Soviet Union, although contemporary art has developed, ordinary people's understanding of contemporary art still remains at "Picasso", while young people who truly pursue art can only do so through the Internet. learn.
The location of the "Garage" was chosen in the 8,500-square-meter former Bakhmetyevsky bus garage
Therefore, the significance of Zhukova's creation of the "Garage" is to provide young people with a way to personally Feeling the charm of contemporary art also allows ordinary Russians to understand what different artistic voices there are in addition to Russian local art.
On the opening day of "Garage", guests present included Princess Charlotte Casalaki of Monaco, Ronald Lauder, heir to the Estée Lauder family, Steven Cohen, the world's third largest collector, and top contemporary Artist Jeff Koons and more.
Zhukova’s many years of connections in Vanity Fair are evident!
The works in the exhibition hall cover Francis Bacon, Lucian Freud, Richter, Damien Hirst, Subodh Gupta, Sarah Lucas, Anthony Works by European and American contemporary art celebrities including Gormley.
These are the collections that Zhukova and Abu have collected for many years. A proper czarina of contemporary art!
In the opening exhibition, people saw the rare large-scale installation "The Red Wagon" by Russian conceptual artists llya and Emilia Kabakov.

Then she also planned a photography exhibition and a shoe exhibition, and finally even the great director David Fincher and High-heeled designer Christian Louboutin was attracted.

In order to better plan the venue, the "Garage" was renovated from the 2008 During 2015, the venue changed three times. The final venue was renovated by the Dutchman Koolhaas in 2015 and is located in Gorky Park. The original site was the famous Four Seasons Hotel Moscow in the 1960s.
After the “Garage” moved into its permanent home, it was officially renamed the “Garage” Museum of Contemporary Art. It is a must-visit place for intellectuals and young people traveling to Russia.
For the first exhibition after moving, Zhukova invited Yayoi Kusama, a popular figure in contemporary art, and specially customized a work with the theme "Guidepost to the Eternal Space" for her.
This is also Yayoi Kusama’s Russian debut, which probably delighted the Russian literary youth.
Zhukova's footsteps are not limited to the exhibition hall itself. Three years after the establishment of "Garage", she personally created a magazine of the same name as "Garage", whose content covers fashion, art, film, and literature. Many aspects.
In 2014, American avant-garde artist Jeff Koons was invited to create his first virtual art work for this magazine - Jeff Koons Bunny Girl
Jeff Koons himself is simply a co-branded creation Great God, in 2017, he also cooperated with LV to launch the Louis Vuitton X Jeff Koons master series bags.
Since its establishment, “Garage” has created many firsts in the Russian art world. In a sense, “Garage” serves as a guiding light for Russian contemporary art.
As the holder of this guiding light, Zhukova is not only the enlightener of this art movement, but also the czarina who led the Russian people to embrace world art.
Many people may not have thought that Dasha Zhukova, who once appeared in the name of her father and ex-boyfriend, would eventually become Russia's number one socialite who is both artistic and able to seduce men.
There are many reasons behind this, including a wealthy family background, being in an upper-class social circle, and a vacancy in the Russian contemporary art market... Of course, the most important thing is her own artistic talent and accomplishment. And a keen sense of business.
