Theatre In Revolution: Russian Avant-Garde Stage Design, 1913-1935

Theatre In Revolution: Russian Avant-Garde Stage Design, 1913-1935

Georgii Kovalenko
4.1/5 ( ratings)
Read Download
Theatre has always occupied a central place in Russian artistic life, and in the early twentieth-century avant-garde painters began experimenting with the stage as a visual laboratory. Artists such as Exter, Lissitzky, Malevich, Popova, Rodchenko, Stepanova, and Tatlin revolutionized costume, set, and poster design, bringing an imaginative vitality to the state that has rarely been equaled.

This lavishly illustrated book accompanies an exhibition organized by Nancy Van Norman Baer of The Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco in collaboration with the internationally known Soviet scholar John E. Bowlt and the staff of the Bakhrushkin State Central Theatrical Museum in Moscow. Works have been selected for their dazzling visual qualities and for the insight they provide into the turbulent history of Russian avant-garde theatre in a changing cultural climate.
