Description: Avant-Garde & Aviation In the Soviet art of the 1920-1930s - painting, graphics, photography, typography and other forms - the theme of aviation sounds. The phantom ideas of Nikolay Fedorov and Konstantin Tsiolkovsky of the late 19th century by the 1920s are being transformed into tangible projects and tasks related to the citizens of the Soviet Union. Vladimir Tatlin, Petr Miturich, Alexander Labas, Georgy Krutokov and many others are inspired by the ideas of free flight over boundless spaces and create projects of flying cities, cars, costumes. By the 1930s, the subject of aviation had taken on a different connotation than that of avant-garde art: the interest of artists of the 1920s in unprecedented flying machines had been replaced in a decade by stamped images imposed by Soviet ideology. The catalogue published a program article by the curator of the exhibition Alexandra Selivanova, as well as articles by Andrei Velikanova Nikolay Fedorova and Kazimire Malevich, Alexander Lavrentyev about the flying objects of Alexander Rodchenko, Nadi Plungyan on aeroplanes in landscapes and Ramiz Aliyev on the concept of aviation as a point of intersection of art and propaganda. The catalogue is equipped with reproductions of part of the work, as well as a list of all exhibits participating in the exhibition. Pictorial book, rare.
