Moskva (Москва, Moscow) is a Russian monthly literary magazine founded in 1957 in Moscow.
Moskva magazine was established in 1957, originally as an organ of the RSFSR Union of Writers and its Moscow department. Its first editor was Nikolay Atarov (1957-1958), succeeded by Yevgeny Popovkin (1958-1968). It was during his time that (in December 1966 - January 1967 issues) for the first time ever Mikhail Bulgakov's The Master and Margarita was published.
The magazine's third editor-in-chief Mikhail Alekseyev has brought its selling figures to record highs (775 thousand in 1989) and made history too by publishing Nikolay Karamzin's History of the Russian State (1989-1990) for the first time since 1917. In the 1990s and 2000s, under Vladimir Krupin (1990-1992) and Leonid Borodin (1992-2008), Moskva, along with Nash Sovremennik magazine and Alexander Prokhanov’s Den/Zavtra newspapers, moved into the vanguard of the so-called 'spiritual opposition' movement. In 1993 the subtitle, The Magazine of Russian Culture, was added to the magazine’s title.
Many of Moscow's historic buildings are being damaged by massive advertising billboards. Entire blocks of apartment buildings are being left in the dark by the imposing signs. Most are believed to be illegal, but it seems nobody is doing anything to solve the problem. Laurence Lee reports from Moscow, Russia's capital. [October 28, 2010]

Set right by the river Volga in the middle of Moscow's booming city centre, BMW M-Power Series have virtually bought the entire neighbourhood leading up to the Kremlin and the Red Square for their newest super billboard. It must be one of the biggest advertisements ever made, surely. Insanely enough, the ad agency has attached five of the car brand's latest models on the actual billboard. At night, the cars' engines are turned on, resulting in a light beam across the entire billboard which subsequently form the famous BMW M-Power Series logo.
Moscow: giant digital billboard running AD with date 21.02.2023 saying "History always repeats itself ..." On that day Vladimir Putin, the President of Russia will address the State Duma (Parliament) and RussianFederation Coucnil live on all domestic TV stations.
