The art of the Russian Revolution rocked the London
...although the opening of the exhibition "Revolution. Russian art 1917-1932" at the Royal Academy of arts still have five days
war is War, sanctions sanctions and culture on schedule. With the British, as it turns out, so. Marvel: after all the claims of shareholders of Yukos, after the gold of the Scythians and "bring back the rock" the government sends in the epicenter of the anti-Russian political agenda in selected masterpieces of national art. Who am I kidding, of course, make it right. Share and transmit the most important ideas that the Russian art gave the world in the twentieth century. Wars end, the artists remain.
"Revolution" is collected not only from the exhibits of our museums. There are Russian avant-garde of the British collections. But our work is dominated by. Paintings, graphics, porcelain, fabrics, photographs and posters were sent by the Tretyakov gallery, Russian Museum, State historical Museum, Museum of Ivanovo and others. London to see "Blue ridge" Vasily Kandinsky, "Walk" by Marc Chagall, works by Kazimir Malevich, Kuzma Petrov-Водкина, Igor Grabar, Aleksandr Deyneka, Boris Kustodiev, Alexander Samokhvalov, Alexander Rodchenko, Sergei Eisenstein, and others.
the Exhibition was originally planned as a possible blockbuster. And now the "Revolution" seems to be waiting for a real triumph. At least thanks to the"Streisand effect". 10 days before the opening, the guardian published a scathing article with an exhaustive name "We are unable to honor the revolutionary of Russian art — is gross propaganda". Say, we should not forget that innovative aesthetics served as a cover for the ideology of unprecedented violence. Lenin compared Russia with Nazi Germany, the red wedge, Lissitzky with a stake in the heart Dracula remembered the Cheka (KGB) and the kulaks in the finals kicked nothing written art-критика national Newspapers Morning Star. I was wondering when will call for Putin's response. But no. But everything else was as it should be. A couple more of these publications — and the British can get their "turn on Serov".
a ticket to the exhibition "Revolution. Russian art 1917-1932" costs 18 pounds, or 1,365 rubles at-нашему. In the Russian Museum — is three times cheaper.
