This comprehensive volume examines the Moscow Conceptualist movement, exploring how artists navigated the existential realities of the late and post-Soviet era. By analyzing the intersection of Russian tradition and political ideology, the text documents a radical shift away from the autonomous genius toward a practice that integrates the viewer into the production process. The book features a significant collection of paintings, drawings, photographs, and installations that define this critical period in art history.
