Dear visitors! Note that the AZ Museum will be closed from April 1 due to the exposition change.
This book is a catalog of the exhibition held in the Moscow Museum of Modern Art and timed to its 15th anniversary. It displayed artworks by the two important representatives of the Soviet unofficial art.
"Vladimir Nemukhin and Lidia Masterkova belonged to the relatively small group of people that revived abstract art in the 1950's Russia. Both were members of Lianozovo group and took part in the 1974 Bulldozer Exhibition, which, although forcefully broken up by police, ironically played a key role in the legitimization of abstract art in the Soviet Union. And most importantly, although they would only see a few examples of Western contemporary art in the early days of their artistic careers, both could overcome the barriers erected by the Soviet cultural policy and engage in a dialogue with Western art of the era long before the legendary exhibition."
