Aesthetics of Anarchy
Nina Gurianova examines the early Russian avant-garde (1910 - 1918) as a distinctive European art movement on its own terms, rather than as a precursor to the more celebrated era of Constructivism that followed. She explores the cultural and intellectual exchange between painters, poets, and philosophers of the period to identify a common "aesthetics of anarchy" that emphasized a freedom of artistic conscience. Drawn from a wide range of sources, the book shows how the avant-garde transformed artistic practices, eroding the traditional boundaries of the arts and challenging contemporary conventions.
