Building the Revolution. Soviet Art and Architecture, 1915
Press Dossier ”la Caixa” Social Outreach Programmes discovers at CaixaForum Madrid the art and architecture from the 1920s and 30s Building the Revolution. Soviet Art and Architecture 1915-1935 The Soviet State that emerged from the 1917 Russian Revolution fostered a new visual language aimed at building a new society based on the socialist ideal. The decade and a half that followed the Revolution was a period of intense activity and innovation in the field of the arts, particularly amongst architects, marked by the use of pure geometric forms. The new State required new types of building, from commune houses, clubs and sports facilities for the victorious proletariat, factories and power stations in order to bring ambitious plans for industrialisation to fruition, and operations centres from which to implement State policy and to broadcast propaganda, as well as such outstanding monuments as Lenin’s Mausoleum. Building the Revolution. Soviet Art and Architecture 1915-1935 illustrates one of the most exceptional periods in the history of architecture and the visual arts, one that is reflected in the engagement of such constructivist artists as Lyubov Popova and Alexander Rodchenko and and Russian architects like Konstantin Melnikov, Moisei Ginzburg and Alexander Vesnin, as well as the European architects Le Corbusier and Mendelsohn. The exhibition features some 230 works, including models, artworks (paintings and drawings) and photographs, featuring both vintage prints from the 1920s and 30s and contemporary images by the British photographer Richard Pare. Building the Revolution. Soviet Art and Architecture 1915-1935 , is organised by the Royal Academy of Arts of London in cooperation with ”la Caixa” Social Outreach Programmes and the SMCA-Costakis Collection of Thessaloniki. -
Survival Guide for Master Exchange
2018-2019 a.y. Survival Guide for Master Exchange 28 WELCOME TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF MANAGEMENT! Dear International Students— On behalf of all of us at the Saint Petersburg University Graduate School of Management, I would like to welcome you to what we hope will be a period of your life that can only be described as a life-changing experience: one which gives you a new perspective on the world, a valuable new international network of friends and future business contacts and especially – those moments to remember, where you discover wonderful things that you otherwise never would have experienced. Study abroad will always bring challenges: from discovering how to get the courses you need to figuring out how to get just about everything practical to work in your life in this new setting - from public transportation to relations between the sexes. And on top of all of this, you have chosen to “think out of the box” by choosing to do your student exchange in a country, which is still unknown territory for many and by wrestling with a very different new language. You have made a strong move which, by the way, just might be what catches the eye of a future employer when you are looking for that exciting international job after graduation. In the meanwhile, all of this will not come easily and there might well be times when you feel like pulling out your hair and shouting “What am I doing here?” If that happens, we want you to know that you are welcome to come in to the office and have a talk with us – we are here to help. -

The Independent Turn in Soviet-Era Russian Poetry: How Dmitry Bobyshev, Joseph Brodsky, Anatoly Naiman and Evgeny Rein Became the ‘Avvakumites’ of Leningrad
The Independent Turn in Soviet-Era Russian Poetry: How Dmitry Bobyshev, Joseph Brodsky, Anatoly Naiman and Evgeny Rein Became the ‘Avvakumites’ of Leningrad. Margo Shohl Rosen Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2011 © 2011 Margo Shohl Rosen All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Independent Turn in Soviet-Era Russian Poetry: How Dmitry Bobyshev, Joseph Brodsky, Anatoly Naiman and Evgeny Rein Became the ‘Avvakumites’ of Leningrad Margo Shohl Rosen The first post-World War II generation of Soviet Russian writers was faced with a crisis of language even more pervasive and serious than the “Crisis of Symbolism” at the beginning of the 20th century: the level of abstraction and formulaic speech used in public venues had become such that words and phrases could only gesture helplessly in the direction of mysterious meaning. Due to the traditional status of poetry in Russian culture and to various other factors explored in this dissertation, the generation of poets coming of age in the mid-1950s was in a unique position to spearhead a renewal of language. Among those who took up the challenge was a group of four friends in Leningrad: Dmitry Bobyshev, Joseph Brodsky, Anatoly Naiman, and Evgeny Rein. Because of the extreme position this group adopted regarding the use of language, I refer to them in this work not as “Akhmatova’s Orphans”—a term commonly applied to the quartet—but as literary “Avvakumites,” a name Anna Akhmatova suggested that invokes the history of Archpriest Avvakum, who by rejecting reforms in church ritual founded the Orthodox sect now known as Old Believers. -

The Underground Tour. the Plans to Build the Subway First Appeared As Early As 1820S, but They Were Dismissed by Alexander I
The underground tour. The plans to build the subway first appeared as early as 1820s, but they were dismissed by Alexander I. The issue was raised again in the early 20th century but it was soon dropped due to beginning of the First World War. The decision to build the subway was made in January 1941, but due to the Second World War the actual construction began just in 1950s. Some of the tunnels were ready though and served as dry and cool storage for the bodies of those starved to death during the Siege of Leningrad. Interesting facts about our subway: The average daily distance traveled by a passenger is 11 km. The average speed is 35-40 km/h and the maximum speed is 90 km/h. St.Petersburg’s subway, with the average depth of 57 metres, is the deepest in the world. Admiralteyskaya station with its 102 meters is the deepest station in Russia. It was the most northern subway until Helsinki opened its subway in 1982. To build a subway in Leningrad was a serious engineering challenge due to unstable soil, ground water, unknown underground rivers and streams, boulders left by the ice age and the depth of the Neva. There were three churches that had to be destroyed in order to build more stations: the Church of the Holy Sign, the Savior on Haymarket (Sennaya), and Cosmo and Damien. Ploshad Vosstania, Sennaya and Chernyshevskaya ground pavilions were built instead. Red Line The longest (almost 30km) and oldest line built in 1955 for transporting workers to the Kirov plant famous for it’s tractors. -
