Russian avant-garde

The Russian Avant-garde Was Born At The Turn Of The 20th Century In Pre-revolutionary Russia. The Intellectual And Cultural Turmoil Had Then Reached A Peak And Provided Fertile Soil For The Formation Of The Movement. For Many Artists Influenced By European Art, The Movement Represented A Way Of Liberating Themselves From The Social And Aesthetic Constraints Of The Past. It Was These Avant-garde Artists Who, Through Their Immense Creativity, Gave Birth To Abstract Art, Thereby Elevating Russian Culture To A Modern Level. Such Painters As Kandinsky, Malevich, Goncharova, Larionov, And Tatlin, To Name But A Few, Had A Definitive Impact On 20th-century Art.
