Summary:

The book covers the political background to the period between 1900 and 1937 in Russia. Illustrations have been integrated with a lucid commentary to document those years of creative experimentation, years which laid the foundation for so much of our century's cultural climate, from abstract painting to high-tech architecture, from modern cinema techniques to contemporary dance.
