Zusammenfassung:"At a time of intense political repression during the 1970s and '80s, the Moscow conceptualists offered vital new ways of thinking for artists in the USSR. Based on extensive original research and in-depth interviews with the original artists, Nicholas demonstrates how the work of these radical, unconventional artists challenged the Soviet authorities, official doctrine, and even other colleagues in the nonconformist art world. Offering a counter-narrative to the tradition of Socialist Realism that dominates Soviet art history, this book presents fascinating evidence of the importance of individual protest and demonstrates that socially-engaged art can be a powerful weapon for change in building a better world".
