This dedicated sale of Soviet-era art held to mark the centenary of the Russian Revolution will include examples from the earliest years of the Soviet Union up until 1991. Covering the avant-garde, state-sponsored Socialist Realism and unofficial art of the post-War period, the sale will demonstrate the surprising diversity of the USSR’s artistic output.
One highlight will be Serafima Ryangina’s Student Excursion to the Baltic Shipyard which was exhibited at the Soviet pavilion at the 1932 Venice Biennale.
