Exhibitions: 1-я — 1922 (Moscow; Exhibition of paintings by artists of the realist direction in aid of the starving) — 11-я — 1929 (Moscow, "Art into the masses"); "For the socialist reconstruction of agriculture in the USSR" (mobile, 1931).
Largest art Association 1920-х — early 1930-х, relying on full state support. It was founded in may 1922 on the initiative of some members of the society, Union of Russian artists, society of artists of the Moscow school — P. A. Radimov, S. V. Malyutin, A.V. Grigoriev, E. A. Katsman, p. Kiselica.
the Impetus for the creation was the debate about realistic art on March 1, 1922 on the eve of the opening 47-й exhibitions TPHV, in particular P. A. Radimov "About the meaning of life in contemporary painting". At the end of March 1922 was created the "Association of artists studying revolutionary life" (FIRB), which received the support of Glavpolitprosvet and N. K. Krupskaya, becoming the prototype of the future Union.
may 1, 1922 at the Kuznetsk bridge, an Exhibition of paintings by artists of the realistic trend in famine relief, which later came to be considered 1-й exhibition AHRR. In the days of the exhibition at the apartment S. V. Malyutin held an organizational meeting at which it was decided to establish on the basis of IHERB new Association underthe assumed name of "the Society of artists of revolutionary Russia" and appointed a Committee to develop a Charter and declarations. In late may approved the name — "Association of artists of revolutionary Russia", adopted a Charter, formed the Presidium of the AHRR — P. A. Radimov (Chairman), A. V. Grigoriev (Deputy Chairman), E. A. Katsman (Secretary). Later the position of Chairman was occupied A. V. Grigoriev (1923-1926), P. A. Radimov (1927-1932).
Ideological program was formulated in the Declaration: "Our civic duty before mankind — artistic-документально to capture the greatest moment of history in its revolutionary impulse. We will depict the present day: the life of the red Army, the workers, the peasantry, the leaders of the revolution and heroes of labor. We will give the true picture of events and not abstract concoctions discrediting our revolution before the international proletariat. The old, pre-revolution groups have lost their meaning, the boundaries between them are erased in relation to ideology, and in terms of forms, and they continue to exist only as groups of people, connected only by a personal relationship, but devoid of any ideological justification and content. This content we consider to be a sign of true works of art... Revolutionary day, the revolutionary moment — heroic day, a heroic moment, and we have now in the monumental forms of the style of heroic realism to reveal their artistic experiences".
By the summer of 1923, the Association had up to 300 members. From 1923 began to organize regional and national branches AHRR — in Petrograd (under the guidance N. I. Dormidontova and S. A. Pavlov), Kazan (Tatar), Saratov, Samara, Nizhny Novgorod, Tsaritsyn, Astrakhan, Yaroslavl, Kostroma, Rostov-на-Дону, Ryazan, Vyatka, Ufa, Tomsk, Novosibirsk, Vladivostok, Sverdlovsk, Kaluga, Tambov, Orenburg, Ivanovo-Вознесенске, Smolensk, Voronezh, Penza, Cheboksary, Baku, Tashkent, Tiflis, Erivan. By may 1, 1926 the national branches reached 34-х.

In 1927 when AHRR was organized by the "Association of artists-самоучек" (CDA). Both organizations were represented in the leadership of the AHRR.

in the Summer of 1930 AHRR became the initiator of creation of FOSH (Federationassociations of Soviet artists).
