Moscow Conceptualism, 1975-1985
"At a time of intense political repression during the 1970s and '80s, the Moscow conceptualists offered vital new ways of thinking for artists in the USSR. Based on extensive original research and in-depth interviews with the original artists, Nicholas demonstrates how the work of these radical, unconventional artists challenged the Soviet authorities, official doctrine, and even other colleagues in the nonconformist art world. Offering a counter-narrative to the tradition of Socialist Realism that dominates Soviet art history, this book presents fascinating evidence of the importance of individual protest and demonstrates that socially-engaged art can be a powerful weapon for change in building a better world"--
The Museological Unconscious
The history of contemporary art in Russia, from socialist realism to the post-Soviet alternative art scene. In The Museological Unconscious, Victor Tupitsyn views the history of Russian contemporary art through a distinctly Russian lens, a "communal optic" that registers the influence of such characteristically Russian phenomena as communal living, communal perception, and communal speech practices. This way of looking at the subject allows him to gather together a range of artists and art movements--from socialist realism to its "dangerous supplement," sots art, and from alternative photography to feminism--as if they were tenants in a large Moscow apartment. Describing the notion of "communal optics," Tupitsyn argues that socialist realism does not work without communal perception--which, as he notes, does not easily fit into crates when paintings travel out of Russia for exhibition in Kassel or New York. Russian artists, critics, and art historians, having lived for decades in a society that ignored or suppressed avant-garde art, have compensated, Tupitsyn claims, by developing a "museological unconscious"--the "museification" of the inner world and the collective psyche.
Double détente
Cette alternative résume bien l'ambivalence des relations franco-soviétiques de 1958 à 1964. Dans le cadre de l'affrontement Est-Ouest, leur nature réside dans la combinaison inédite entre une logique de guerre et une logique de paix. Théâtre d'opérations mais aussi champ d'expérimentations de la détente, les relations entre Paris et Moscou offrent, avec le recul, un terrain d'observation privilégié des différentes formes que la guerre froide a pu revêtir. C'est pourquoi cet ouvrage propose une approche globale alimentée par l'ambition d'une histoire totale. Trois niveaux d'analyse distincts sont reliés chronologiquement. Au traditionnel niveau politico-diplomatique d'échang...
