St. Petersburg: KGallery, 2015. Sewn cl. This catalogue publishes the first major exhibition in Russia of works by the Silver Age artist who emigrated from Russia to Paris in 1920 and then to New York in 1922. Mustering works from approximately twenty museums and private collections in Russia, Europe and the United States, the exhibition shows many of Sudeikin's works as a set and costume designer for drama and ballet and a sampling of his designs and illustrations for journals and theater programs. Two substantive articles introduce the catalogue and establish connection between Sudeikin's painting, drawings, and theater design with Western European art, especially after Diagilev gave Sudeikin a prominent place in the 1906 exhibition in Paris "Two Centuries of Russian Painting and Sculpture" and in the Ballet russes. The elegant design includes many fold=out illustrations that enable readers to appreciate Sudeikin's wide almost panoramic works. 169 p., 30 cm, approx. 100 color illus. Rus. Item #1296
