Russian Avant-Garde (Art of Century) (repost)

Evgueny Kovtun, "Russian Avant-Garde (Art of Century)"
ISBN: 1859956785 | 2009 | EPUB | 199 pages | 7 MB

The Russian Avant-Garde was born at the turn of the twentieth century in pre-revolutionary Russia.
The intellectual and cultural turmoil had then reached a peak and provided fertile soil for the formation of the movement. For many artists influenced by European art, the movement represented a way of liberating themselves from the social and aesthetic constraints of the past. It was these Avant-Garde artists who, through their immense creativity, gave birth to abstract art, thereby elevating Russian culture to a modern level. Such painters as Kandinsky, Malevich, Goncharova, Larionov, and Tatlin, to name but a few, had a definitive impact on twentieth-century art.
