  • Politics and History of 20Th Century Europe Shifted Radically, Swinging Like a Pendulum in a Dramatic Cause and Effect Relationship
    Politics and history of 20th Century Europe shifted radically, swinging like a pendulum in a dramatic cause and effect relationship. I explored the correlation between art movements and revolutions, focusing specifically on Russian Constructivism and the Russian Revolution in the 1920s, as well as the Punk movement in East Germany that instigated the Fall of the Berlin Wall. I am fascinated by the structural similarities of these movements, and their shared desire of egalitarianism, which progressed with the support of opposing political ideologies. I chose fashion design because it was at the forefront of both Constructivism and Punk, and because it is what I hope to pursue as a career. After designing a full collection in 2D, I wanted to challenge myself by bringing one of my garments to life. The top is a plaster cast cut in half and shaped with epoxy and a lace up mechanism so that it can be worn. A paste made of plaster and paper pulp serves to attach the pieces of metal and create a rough texture that produces the illusion of a concrete wall. For the skirt, I created 11 spheres of various sizes by layering and stitching together different shades of white, cream, off-white, grey, and beige colored fabrics, with barbed wire and hardware cloth, that I then stuffed with Polyfil. The piece is wearable, and meant to constrict one’s freedom of movement - just like the German Democratic Party constricted freedom of speech in East Germany. The bottom portion is meant to suffocate the body in a different approach, with huge, outlandish, forms like the ones admired by the Constructivists.

The movement did have a handful of supporters amongst the Russian avant garde but it was dwarfed by its sibling constructivism whose manifesto harmonized better with the ideological sentiments of the revolutionary communist government during the early days of Soviet Union.

The painting's quality has degraded considerably since it was drawn.

Everything’s accidental and unorganized, there’s nothing to photograph, it’s not interesting. Now the pines aren’t too bad, long, bare, almost telegraph poles.’3 2 To the city dweller Rodchenko, nature seemed to be a disorganized chaos with no artistic appeal, an informal and unstructured accumulation of thicket and undergrowth.

These texts reflected an anthropological experience and response to oppression and violence in human society.

However, for the names of artists, we have combined two methods. For their names according to the Library of Congress system even when more conventional English versions exist: e.g. , Aleksandr Rodchenko, not Alexander Rodchenko; Aleksandr Deineka, not Alexander Deineka; Vasilii Kandinsky, not Wassily Kandinsky. Surnames with an “-ii” ending are rendered with an ending of “-y.” But in the case of artists who emigrated to the West, we have used the spelling that the artist adopted or that has gained common usage. Soft signs are not used in artists’ names but are retained elsewhere. TABLE OF CONTENTS 7 - ‘A Glimpse of Tomorrow’: Konstantin Vialov and the Search for a Modern Realism” by Alla Rosenfeld, Ph.

Elcott I. Dominant Art Forms, Artistic Confusion Laocoön was in the air (fig. ).1 Irving Babbitt had revisited Lessing’s 1766 text and introduced a New Laocoön in an eponymous book published 1910.1 Not satisfied with Babbitt’s history, the critic Clement Greenberg endeavored to advance toward a newer Laocoön in a landmark essay published in 1940. He was unaware, it seems, that two years prior Rudolf Arnheim had published his own “New Laocoön” on “Artistic Composites and the Talking Film.”2 Whatever their difference—and they are by no means inconsequential—Lessing, Babbitt, Arnheim, and Greenberg were animated by a common animus: the hatred of confusion. Babbitt’s book was subtitled “An Essay on the Confusion of the Arts.” And Greenberg, famously, championed Modernism as a purification of painting from the redoubled confusion of illusionism and literature. He boasted: “The arts, then, have been hunted back to their mediums, and there Figure 1 3 William Henry Fox Talbot, Statuette of they have been isolated, concentrated and defined.” Nearly eighty years on, we can declare ‘Laocoön and his Sons’, 1845, salted-paper with confidence that the hunt is over and the prey are not only isolated, concentrated and print and calotype negative, 8.9x9.5 cm.

At no other point in the history of art did artistic schools and artists’ associations emerge at such a breathtaking pace than between 1910 and 1920. Every group was its own programme, every programme its own call to battle – against the past as well as against competing iterations of the present. The Albertina is devoting a major presentation to the diverse range of art from that era: 130 masterpieces by Mikhail Larionov, Natalia Goncharova, Kazimir Malevich, Wassily Kandinsky, and Marc Chagall illustrate fundamentally different styles and their dynamic development from primitivism to cubo-futurism and on to suprematism, as well the chronological parallels between figurative expressionism and pure abstraction.
