Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Analyzing "totalitarianism from below" in a crucial area of Soviet culture, Hugh Hudson shows how Stalinist forces within the architectural community destroyed an avant-garde movement of urban planners and architects, who attempted to create a more humane built environment for the Soviet people. Through a study of the ideas and constructions of these visionary reformers, Hudson explores their efforts to build new forms of housing and "settlements" designed to free the residents, especially women, from drudgery, allowing them to participate in creative work and to enjoy the "songs of larks." Resolving to obliterate this movement of human liberation, Stalinists in the field of architecture unleashed a "little" terror from below, prior to Stalin's Great Terror. Using formerly secret Party archives made available by perestroika, Hudson finds in the rediscovered theoretical work of the avant-garde architects a new understanding of their aims. He shows, for instance, how they saw the necessity of bringing elite desires for a transformed world into harmony with the people's wish to preserve national culture. Such goals brought their often divided movement into conflict with the Stalinists, especially on the subject of collectivization. Hudson's provocative work offers evidence that in spite of the ultimate success of the Stalinists, the Bolshevik Revolution was not monolithic: at one time it offered real architectural and human alternatives to the Terror. Originally published in 1993. The Princeton Legacy Library uses the latest print-on-demand technology to again make available previously out-of-print books from the distinguished backlist of Princeton University Press.

Download or read book Felix Novikov written by Vladimir Belogolovsky and published by Dom Pub. This book was released on 2013 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was prominent architect and publicist Felix Novikov (b. 1927) who first coined the term Soviet modernism, which refers to the third, concluding period (1955-85) of Soviet architecture. The value of Novikov’s creative path lies in the fact that it spans the years both before and after Soviet modernism. Today, the architect continues to be a prolific writer, critic, and initiator of many inspired ideas that materialize into publications, exhibitions, and conferences. He is the key surviving source for the fullest and most accurate understanding of Soviet architecture after World War II. His principal built works are the Palace of Pioneers in Moscow (1962) and the Science Center of Microelectronics (1969) and Moscow Institute of Electronics (1971) in Zelenograd. His numerous books include Formula of Architecture (1984) and Architects and Architecture (2002).

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An essential exploration of how Russian ideas about the United States shaped architecture and urban design from the czarist era to the fall of the U.S.S.R. Idealized representations of America, as both an aspiration and a menace, played an important role in shaping Russian architecture and urban design from the American Revolution until the fall of the Soviet Union. Jean-Louis Cohen traces the powerful concept of “Amerikanizm” and its impact on Russia’s built environment from early czarist interest in Revolutionary America, through the spectacular World’s Fairs of the 19th century, to department stores, skyscrapers, and factories built in Russia using American methods during the 20th century. Visions of America also captivated the Russian avant-garde, from El Lissitzky to Moisei Ginzburg, and Cohen explores the ongoing artistic dialogue maintained between the two countries at the mid-century and in the late Soviet era, following a period of strategic competition. This first major study of Amerikanizm in the architecture of Russia makes a timely contribution to our understanding of modern architecture and its broader geopolitics.

Download or read book Behind the Iron Curtain written by Feliks Novikov and published by Dom Publishers. This book was released on 2016 with total page 255 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The prominent architect Felix Novikov was born in 1927, when the famous Constructivist Konstantin Melnikov was at the peak of his career. Novikov tells the dramatic story of Soviet architecture, portraying the conditions he worked in and how he collaborated with the government and other participants during the creative process. He further explains how Soviet design and planning institutes were organized with reference to the Union of the Architects of the USSR and describes the creative ideals of his generation of architects, who are today identified as Soviet Modernists. As a time witness, his memories cannot be recounted in their whole complexity by historians. Novikov also describes some of the conditions that affected his own creative fate and that of others. This book reflects the characteristics of Soviet life and its connections to architects' professional activity. Novikov's confessions are more than that of an architect; they give a testimony to daily life in the Soviet Union from Stalin to glasnost.

Book excerpt: Georgii Krutikov epitomises the utopian visions and aspirations of the Russian Avant-garde. In 1927, while still an architectural student at the Moscow Vkhutemas, he presented his vision for a flying city. It was a scheme that was intended to solve the problem of over-crowding and despoiling of the Earth s surface and resources, by placing humanity s living quarters in space. Inspired by dreams of space travel, notions of building a new world, and a revolutionary idealism which seemed to make all things possible, Krutikov developed his ideas in great detail, producing a substantial amount of data, along with numerous sketches, drawings, and plans. For decades, architectural historians of Russian modernism have cited this project, but apart from a few drawings, little has actually been known or written about the design, its author or his career as an architect. This book by the eminent scholar Selim Omarovich Khan-Magomedov remedies this deficiency. It is the very first detailed study of Krutikov s sensational scheme, providing a wealth of visual and documentary material, allowing the reader to gain insights into this remarkable project and the thinking behind it. Khan-Magomedov also discusses Krutikov s later career as a member of Nikolai Ladovsky s rationalist group of architects, ARU (The Association of Urban Architects), the contribution that he made to this architectural approach, as well as his work on urban planning and designs for the Moscow Metro."
