The 50 works in this exhibition exemplify many of the traditions that stemmed from icon painting and 19th century Realism. These traditions continued through the early avant-garde movement in the 1910s and 1920s; through the neo-classicism of the 1930s, 1940s, and 1950s including the Stalinist period; Socialist Realism; and the Severe Style of the 1960s to the period of the “thaw” and glasnost in the 1980s.
A catalog was published in conjunction with the exhibition, and a brochure for this exhibition was produced and is archived.
