"This unusual treatment of the Russian avant-garde offers original insights into the broad and complex unfolding of Russian art up to the 1950s. Beginning with an account of the movement's origins in about 1870, and concluding with the death of Stalin, Andrew Spira demonstrates how traditional Russian icons underpin the development of nineteenth- and twentieth-century Russian art." "Andrew Spira traces the course of the paradoxical dialogue between artists at the cutting edge of modernity and the rich, sacred and artistic traditions of the past. He also shows how communist designers continued to adapt the popular conventions of icon painting to their own purposes after the Russian Revolution." "The Avant-Garde Icon throws new light on the deeper meaning and significance of icons. It adds to art-historical debates around early twentieth-century art, whilst also catering to those who have a general interest in icons and in the stunning images produced in Russia throughout this tumultuous period."--Jacket.
