The article systematizes the approaches to the study and presentation of Soviet art material in the post-Soviet period and gives a periodization of changes in these approaches. The author refers to the types of exhibition recycling of Soviet art, mainly in the practice of the State Russian Museum, the State Tretyakov Gallery, and the Central Exhibition Halls of Moscow and St. Petersburg. In general, two types of temporary exhibitions of Soviet material stand out: research exhibitions and attraction exhibitions. The purpose of research exhibitions is to introduce previously unknown or marginalized layers of artistic culture into scientific circulation and the public sphere. In relation to this work, these are research exhibitions of the Russian-Soviet avant-garde and artistic movements of the 1920s-1930s and non-conformism of the 1940s-1980s. The goals of attraction exhibitions (the proposed term is based on S. Eisenstein’s well-known method of “the montage of attractions”) are associated with the creation of an entertaining visual environment that affects the viewer, offering them ways of understanding the Soviet past ideologized in the Soviet style. The purpose of the article is also to show how the cultural policy of temporary exhibitions affects the re-expositions of the State Russian Museum and the State Tretyakov Gallery, that is, the formation of certain patterns or scenarios for the presentation of the art of the Soviet past. |
