RUSSIAN REVOLUTIONARY ART - A brief History

The Russian Revolution saw a nearly unprecedented amount of change sweep through the country. Outside the realm of politics and public opinion however, some of the nation's most revered artists had already begun creative revolutions of their own. Members of the Russian avant-garde experimented with new forms of artistic expression like Cubo-futurism, Suprematism and Constructivism. As the revolution continued, many within the avant-garde would find themselves under the attack of government censorship as the rise of Stalinism and its harsh criticism of interpretive and boundless art regulated them to the underground in favour of Russian Realism. Almost a century later, the works of the avant-garde find themselves returned to the public eye from their slumber in Stalin’s confiscated archives. The spirit of their work is still very much alive as new generations pour over their works and find new meaning in the geometric shapes and stanzas of the artists who would define the Russian Revolution.
