Summary:
In the 1930s the Russian avant-garde project was declared alien and harmful to the work of building socialism, and much of it ended up in storage. For many years thereafter, socialist realism was the established style in the country. Only in the second half of the 1950s did artists of the new generation get the chance to see works by the heroes of the avant-garde, igniting a new phase in the development of the original ideas of Malevich, Tatlin and El Lissitzky.

Despite attempts to promote the aesthetics of ruins in Russia - from Catherine the Great's construction of fake ruins in imperial parks to Josef Brodsky's elegiac meditations - ruins have never achieved the status they enjoy in Western Europe.

Summary:
Despite attempts to promote the aesthetics of ruins in Russia - from Catherine the Great's construction of fake ruins in imperial parks to Josef Brodsky's elegiac meditations - ruins have never achieved the status they enjoy in Western Europe. While the Soviet Union was notorious for leveling churches, post-Soviet Russia has only intensified the practice of massive destruction and reconstruction. "Architecture of Oblivion "examines the role of ruins in the development of Russia's historical consciousness from the 18th century to the present. This original work from a leading authority on the subject will appeal to historians of Russian culture and thought, literature and art scholars, and general readers interested in ruins.

Summary:
If participation has been an ideal in politics since ancient democracy, in art it became central only with the avant-gardes emerging from WWI and the Russian Revolution. Politics and aesthetics are still catching up with each other. In the 21st Century, since the revolutionary unrest of the 1960s, participation in art and architecture has lost its utopian glow and become(...)

Summary:
If participation has been an ideal in politics since ancient democracy, in art it became central only with the avant-gardes emerging from WWI and the Russian Revolution. Politics and aesthetics are still catching up with each other. In the 21st Century, since the revolutionary unrest of the 1960s, participation in art and architecture has lost its utopian glow and become the focus of a fierce debate: does ‘participatory’ art and architecture shape social reality, or is it shaped by it?Contemporary critics see in participation only technocratic control, while others embrace it as a viable politics in an era of global capitalism. This volume breaks the impasse by looking at how participants themselves exert power, rather than being victimized or liberated from it. From artists hijacking Google Earth to protesters setting up a museum of the revolution in Cairo, art, architecture, and daily life are explored in their participatory dimension.

Summary:
Among the Russian avant-garde artist Kazimir Malevich’s most intriguing works, the arkhitektons are also the most enigmatic, as these quasi-architectural sculptures made in the 1920s were almost entirely lost, along with many of the accompanying drawings, or planits. In The Additional Element in Architecture, Pedro Ignacio Alonso and Paulina Bitrán bring Malevich's elusive arkhitektons to startling, three-dimensional life and show how these objects form a comprehensive universe that embodies the artist's Suprematism—his belief in the supremacy of pure artistic sensation in abstraction. The book features digital reconstructions of 15 arkhitektons and planits that are lost in their original physical form.
