The 900-day siege of Leningrad (1941-44) was one of the turning points of the Second World War. It slowed down the German advance into Russia and became a national symbol of survival and resistance. An estimated one million civilians died, most of them from cold and starvation. Lydia Ginzburg, a respected literary scholar (who meanwhile wrote prose 'for the desk drawer' through seven decades of Soviet rule), survived. Using her own using notes and sketches she wrote during the siege, along with conversations and impressions collected over the years, she distilled the collective experience of life under siege. Through painful depiction of the harrowing conditions of that period, Ginzburg created a paean to the dignity, vitality and resilience of the human spirit.

Anton Ginzburg

  • Categories: Art

Es begann mit der Erforschung des Hyperborea-Mythos. Es schloss sich eine Erkundung des Aralsees an. Nun richtet Anton Ginzburg seinen Blick auf die Epoche des Konstruktivismus und beschließt damit eine faszinierende Trilogie von Büchern. Als Künstler und Forscher blickt Ginzburg kritisch auf die Arbeiten bekannter Konstruktivisten wie Rodtschenko und Tatlin oder der VkhUTEMAS. Er entdeckt in ihren Werken die antreibende Kraft ihrer Utopien zugleich mit den Gefahren auch die Grenzen dieser Ambitionen. Aus diesen Erkenntnissen gehen Ginzburgs Werke hervor. Sie sind inspiriert von der vorgefundenen Ästhetik und lassen diese aufleben. Sie wahren dennoch die Distanz eines Kommentars. Wie in den beiden vorangegangenen Installationen stellt Ginzburg auch hier die Frage nach dem Werden: Welche Bedeutung haben die vergangenen Phänomene für die Gegenwart, welche Gestalt nehmen sie heute an? Ginzburgs Skulpturen, Malerei und Video sind die eindrucksvolle Antwort.
