John Milner charts the course of Soviet art during the turbulent years immediately following the Bolshevik Revolution. Utilizing many old and historically valuable photographs, he measures the influence of the Revolution on poetry, painting, sculpture, film, stage design, and architecture, gauging the disintegration of distinctions between art and construction, whose union was seen as a basis for the new society.The roles played by such artists as Rodchenko, Malevich, Tatlin, Lissitzky, Popova and Moholy-Nagy are assessed and the violent reaction against the esoteric credos of the pre-Revolutionary Mir Iskusstva group is analyzed in this provocative study of a movement dedicated to annihilating the past in art and to building a new public art based on untarnished foundations.
