Description

Prominent Russian artists in the first half of the 20th Century who, by combining elements from the major contemporary art movements in Europe—Fauvism, Cubism, Futurism, and Orphism—with local folk art, formulated a new language which led to the emergence of abstract art. The exhibits spanned the period from before World War I until the years of artistic decline that followed the Bolshevik revolution. Introduction. 49 plates with captions. No itemized listing.
