Summary: | "Coinciding with the centennial of the 1917 Russian Revolution, Columbus Museum of Art presents Red Horizon: Contemporary Art and Photography in the USSR and Russia, 1960-2010, on view June 16 through September 24, 2017. This timely exhibition is drawn from two facets of Neil K. Rector's world-class art collection: Soviet and Russian photography from the 1970s to the early 1990s, and the work of Moscow-based unofficial artists who came to prominence in the 1960s and 1970s. Combining more than 300 works from these two aspects of the collection, Red Horizon offers fresh perspective on the art and life of this period, and suggests how creativity and critical thinking manifest themselves under the most difficult. Red Horizon looks at the period shortly after Joseph Stalin's death in 1953 until the late 1980s and beyond, when artists attempted to represent the everyday realities of the USSR and Russia." --Introduction.
