  • Malevich's Russian Peasant Paintings During the First Five-Year Plan
    The NEP Era: Soviet Russia 1921-1928, 8 (2014), 1-24. ARTICLES / СТАТЬИ MARIE GASPER-HULVAT Proletarian Credibility? Malevich’s Russian Peasant Paintings during the First Five-Year Plan During the years immediately before and after the 1917 October Revo- lution, the prominent Avant-Garde artist Kazimir Malevich (1878-1935) enjoyed renown in Russian art circles for his signature, abstract work. His nonobjective “Suprematist” style constituted one of the first models of purely abstract, non-representational painting in the modernist tradition of Western art. If the primary subject matter that Malevich’s work was con- cerned with is geometric forms, the second most recognizable content of Malevich’s paintings would be the Russian peasant. Not all of his work was abstract, and those paintings which do represent identifiable imagery have a notable tendency to favor rural subject matter, both landscapes and their inhabitants. In fact, Malevich began his career as a painter depicting peasant figures, prior to developing his signature style of abstraction in 1915. After his purely abstract period concluded in the mid-1920s, similar peasant themes reemerged in his work at the turn of the 1930s.1 While peasant imagery from early in Malevich’s career largely reflects the concerns of a young artist grappling with West European art historical precedents adapted to a Slavic context, I contend that his later peasant works engaged with the complex set of historical and political circum- stances of the early Stalinist era. Other scholars have explained how the artist’s motivations for creating the later peasant works were multifaceted and related significantly to his philosophical treatises regarding the essen- tial nature of art and humanity.2 Another set of scholars has read these images as reactions to contemporary political events.3 1.

  • International Scholarly Conference the PEREDVIZHNIKI ASSOCIATION of ART EXHIBITIONS. on the 150TH ANNIVERSARY of the FOUNDATION
    International scholarly conference THE PEREDVIZHNIKI ASSOCIATION OF ART EXHIBITIONS. ON THE 150TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE FOUNDATION ABSTRACTS 19th May, Wednesday, morning session Tatyana YUDENKOVA State Tretyakov Gallery; Research Institute of Theory and History of Fine Arts of the Russian Academy of Arts, Moscow Peredvizhniki: Between Creative Freedom and Commercial Benefit The fate of Russian art in the second half of the 19th century was inevitably associated with an outstanding artistic phenomenon that went down in the history of Russian culture under the name of Peredvizhniki movement. As the movement took shape and matured, the Peredvizhniki became undisputed leaders in the development of art. They quickly gained the public’s affection and took an important place in Russia’s cultural life. Russian art is deeply indebted to the Peredvizhniki for discovering new themes and subjects, developing critical genre painting, and for their achievements in psychological portrait painting. The Peredvizhniki changed people’s attitude to Russian national landscape, and made them take a fresh look at the course of Russian history. Their critical insight in contemporary events acquired a completely new quality. Touching on painful and challenging top-of-the agenda issues, they did not forget about eternal values, guessing the existential meaning behind everyday details, and seeing archetypal importance in current-day matters. Their best paintings made up the national art school and in many ways contributed to shaping the national identity. The Peredvizhniki

  • The Peredvizhniki and West European Art
    ROSALIND P. BLAKESLEY "THERE IS SOMETHING THERE ...": THE PEREDVIZHNIKI AND WEST EUROPEAN ART The nature of the dialogue between the Peredvizhniki and West European art has been viewed largely through the prism of modernist concerns. Thus their engagement - or lack of it - with French modern- ist luminaries such as Manet and the Impressionists has been subject to much debate. Such emphasis has eclipsed the suggestive, and often creative, relationship between the Peredvizhniki and West European painters whose practice is seen as either anticipatory of or inimical to the modernist camp - to wit, Andreas Achenbach and his circle in Düsseldorf; artists of the Barbizon school; certain Salon regulars; and various Realist groupings in France, Germany and Victorian Britain.'I My intention herc is to explore the subtle connections between such artists, but not as part of any wider art historical concern to challenge the hegemony of modcrnism, for the position of Russian artists vis-ä- vis Western modernist discoursc - before, during and after the time of the avant-garde - is of ongoing concern. Rather, my aim is to question the still prevalent interpretation of the Peredvizhniki as "national" art- All translations are my own unless otherwise indicated. 1. These parallcls havc not gone unremarked. Alison Hilton, for example, writes: "Aside from the Russian settings, the work of Perov and his colleagues shows the same general concern for rural and urban poverty, alcoholism, prostitution, and other mid-nineteenth-century problems that troubled many European artists and writers."

    H-Announce Russian Art on the Rise Announcement published by Isabel Wünsche on Wednesday, March 29, 2017 Type: Call for Papers Date: May 15, 2017 Location: Germany Subject Fields: Art, Art History & Visual Studies, Cultural History / Studies, Fine Arts, Humanities, Russian or Soviet History / Studies CfP: Russian Art on the Rise 5th Graduate Workshop of the Russian Art & Culture Group Berlin, September 22–23, 2017 Working languages: English and German | Arbeitssprachen: Englisch und Deutsch Deadline for submission: May 15, 2017 The fifth graduate workshop of the Russian Art and Culture Group will focus on the theorization and contextualization of Russian art of the late 19th and early 20th centuries by its contemporaries, positioning it in the cultural discourses of the period that ranged from national appreciation to scientific approaches. Thanks to the collaboration of Jacobs University Bremen and Freie Universität Berlin, the workshop will take place in Berlin for the first time. The workshop will examine the development of Russian art during the period from 1870 to the 1920s. Questioning the self-imposed requirements for their creative work, artistic movements such as the Peredvizhniki and Mir iskusstva addressed subjects specific to Russian culture. The artists not only strove to capture a Russian cultural identity in their works but utilized folk art and crafts to establish a specific Russian style. Modernist artistic styles of western European origin, e.g. French impressionism, were well received by Russian artists. Furthermore, the Russian avant-garde proclaimed a pure form of painting free from historical or literary context and the forms of nature. In this process, new academies were created, their aim was to establish a scientific approach to art and to research various artistic Citation: Isabel Wünsche.

  • ART CENTERS and PERIPHERAL ART [A LECTURE at the UNIVERSITY of HAMBURG, OCTOBER 15, 1982] Nicos Hadjinicolaou
    DOCUMENT Downloaded from http://direct.mit.edu/artm/article-pdf/9/2/119/1846574/artm_a_00267.pdf by guest on 24 September 2021 ART CENTERS AND PERIPHERAL ART [A LECTURE AT THE UNIVERSITY OF HAMBURG, OCTOBER 15, 1982] nicos hadjinicolaou The title of my talk is “Art Centers and Peripheral Art.” The subject to which I have assigned this title touches several aspects of our discipline. I would briefl y like to raise several questions which have led me to the discussion of this topic. 1. Naturally, the most important, most complicated question for us art historians, but I believe also for historians in general—a problem, by the way, which we shall never “solve,” but answer differently depend- ing on our points of view—is the following: how and why does form change?1 Which available tools or means make it possible for art histori- ans to capture these changes? I think that the point I am hinting at here with “art centers and peripheral art” touches on this question: in the relationship of center and periphery, in the effect of an art center, and in the dissemination of its production to the periphery. In inundating and overpowering the art production of the periphery, the history of art is also being made.2 1 This has been, no doubt, the central question at least of German-language art history since the end of the 19th century (Heinrich Wölffl in, August Schmarsow, Alois Riegl). 2 This, too, cannot be emphasized enough. The history of art is created from (among other factors) the (unequal) interrelationship of periphery and center.

  • Abstract Vladimir Makovsky
    ABSTRACT VLADIMIR MAKOVSKY: THE POLITICS OF NINETEENTH-CENTURY RUSSIAN REALISM Tessa J. Crist, M.A. School of Art and Design Northern Illinois University, 2015 Barbara Jaffee, Director This thesis examines the political work produced by a little-known Russian Realist, Vladimir Makovsky (1846-1920), while he was a member of the nineteenth-century art collective Peredvizhniki. Increasingly recognized for subtle yet insistent opposition to the tsarist regime and the depiction of class distinctions, the work of the Peredvizhniki was for decades ignored by modernist art history as the result of an influential article, “Avant-Garde and Kitsch,” written by American art critic Clement Greenberg in 1939. In this article, Greenberg suggests the work of Ilya Repin, the most renowned member of the Peredvizhniki, should be regarded not as art, but as “kitsch”--the industrialized mass culture of an urban working class. Even now, scholars who study the Peredvizhniki concern themselves with the social history of the group as a whole, rather than with the merits of specific artworks. Taking a different approach to analyzing the significance of the Peredvizhniki and of Makovsky specifically this thesis harnesses the powerful methodologies devised in the 1970s by art historians T.J. Clark and Michael Fried, two scholars who are largely responsible for reopening the dialogue on the meaning and significance of Realism in the history of modern art.
