American Artists from the Russian Empire / Amerikanskie khudozhniki iz Rossiiskoi imperii /
St. Petersburg: Rus muz, 2008. Sewn cl. Artists who left Russia in the first wave of emigration after the 1917 revolution (1917–1930) brought with them the ferment of artistic life in early twentieth-century Russia. This catalogue of an exhibition at two Russian museums and two American museums publishes paintings, drawings, and some works of sculpture from the 1920s to the 1960s in which techniques acquired in Russia were applied to American subjects. By uniting the works of forty-four artists from disparate museums, galleries and private collections, this catalogue has accomplished the task of conveying how one cultural tradition can enrich and become part of another. 286 pp., 10 x 13 ins., 151 color, sewn cl., Rus. or ENGLISH, Item #2656
