Art and Politics: avant-garde in post-revolutionary Russia

Magdalena Cześniak-Zielińska



Abstract

This article deals with the Russian avant-garde, whose origins must be sought in the early years of the twentieth century. Ideas of the avant-garde art evolved under the influence of the First World War, the Russian revolutions, the Civil War and the Polish-Bolshevik War of 1920. Between the years 1917-1918 and during the Civil War many left-wing artists joined the management effort of artistic institutions in Soviet Russia. At the same time their work became more and more a tool of communist propaganda. The decree on socialist realism in art, literature and film brought the end to the artistic avant-garde.
