Soviet Art and Architecture 1915-1935

Sat, 29 Oct 2011 16:54:06 +0200

Building the Revolution
Mixed-media, Royal Academy of Arts, London, United-Kingdom
29 octobre 2011 - 22 janvier 2012
This winter the Royal Academy of Arts will present Building the Revolution: Soviet Art and Architecture 1915–1935. The exhibition will examine Russian avant-garde architecture made during a brief but intense period of design and construction that took place from c.1922 to 1935. Fired by the Constructivist art that emerged in Russia from c.1915, architects transformed this radical artistic language into three dimensions, creating structures whose innovative style embodied the energy and optimism of the new Soviet Socialist state. The exhibition will juxtapose large-scale photographs of extant buildings with relevant Constructivist drawings and paintings, vintage photographs and periodicals. Many of the works have never been shown in the UK before.

Photography, Fotografiska Museum, Stockholm, Sweden
7 octobre 2011 - 8 janvier 2012
Nick Brandt’s photograph of an elephant drinking captures, in all its detail, the quiet reserve of this creature, its weathered skin and ivory tusks dusty and worn. Each individual wrinkle, each contour, its gentle gaze, is imbedded into the paper, the result of patience and tripping the shutter at just the right moment. Through his craft Brandt grants us an intimate glance into the private world of these gentle beasts.

Postmodernism, Style and Subversion 1970-1990

Collective Exhibition
Mixed-media, Victoria and Albert Museum, London, United-Kingdom
24 septembre 2011 - 15 janvier 2012
Of all movements in art and design history, postmodernism is perhaps the most controversial. This era defies definition, but it is a perfect subject for an exhibition. Postmodernism was an unstable mix of the theatrical and theoretical. It was visually thrilling, a multifaceted style that ranged from the colourful to the ruinous, the ludicrous to the luxurious. To the postmodernists, style was everything – in art, design, architecture and everything in between, including music. Postmodernism challenged the utopian ideal of Modernism, favouring bold colours and patterns, historical quotation, wit and a new found freedom in design. See over 250 objects across all areas of art and design and revisit a time when style was not just a ‘look’ but became an attitude.
