Pojmovnik ruske avangarde 2
Glossary of the Russian Avant-Garde 2 contains texts by eminent literary experts who dealt with various aspects of Russian avant-garde literature.
The Glossary of the Russian Avant-Garde, edited by Aleksandar Flaker and Dubravka Ugrešić, is a multi-volume work that systematically explores the key terms, aesthetics, and theoretical concepts of the Russian avant-garde movement of the early 20th century. The first volume was published in 1984 in Zagreb, published by the Croatian Institute of Graphic Arts and the Institute for Literary Studies of the Faculty of Humanities and Social Sciences in Zagreb.
The collection brings together works by prominent literary theorists and experts, including Lena Szilard with an essay on carnivalization, Gerhard Schaumann who analyzes montage, and Aleksandar Flaker with the concept of "optimal projections". These texts provide in-depth insight into the aesthetic and ideological foundations of Russian avant-garde artistic practices, including futurism, constructivism, and formalism.
The glossary stands out for its interdisciplinary approach, connecting literature, fine arts, theater, and language theory. Each term is treated through the prism of historical context, theoretical analysis, and practical applications in works of art. This provides the reader with a comprehensive understanding of the complexity and influence of Russian avant-garde movements on contemporary art and culture.
The design of the edition, created by Zoran Pavlović, further emphasizes the avant-garde spirit of the collection. The Glossary of the Russian Avant-Garde is an indispensable resource for anyone interested in studying avant-garde art movements and their theoretical frameworks.
