Part II — this is because continues the exhibition, which was held in the spring of 2016. Chronology of the second part of the exhibition covers the period from 1917 until the early 1930-х. At this time, continues the artistic evolution of those styles that originated in 1910-е years (to some extent, Cubo-futurism, primitivism), and, simultaneously, the formation of new directions, such as pointlessness and constructivism. On the avant-garde scene there is a generation of young artists who studied in VKhUTEMAS from the most famous masters of the avant-garde, mainly from the representatives of "Jack of diamonds".

Now their pupils form the face of the new art. They are all working within the figurative art, but develop new avant-garde — expressionism, surrealism. At the same time there are schools recognized masters of non-objective avant-garde: Kazimir Malevich school at Vitebsk and the school of Mikhail Matiushin in Petrograd — Leningrad. Alexander Rodchenko also gathers young representatives of irrelevance and emerging constructivism.

The basis of the exhibition went to the materials research work published in the form of the fundamental three-volume "Encyclopedia of Russian avant-garde".
