Description

Andrey Shabanov’s seminal reinterpretation of the Peredvizhniki is a comprehensive study that examines in-depth for the first time the organizational structure, self-representation, exhibitions, and critical reception of this 19th-century artistic partnership.

Shabanov advances a more pragmatic reading of the Peredvizhniki, artists seeking professional and creative freedom in authoritarian Tsarist Russia.

He likewise demonstrates and challenges how and why the group eventually came to be defined as a critically-minded Realist art movement.

Unprecedentedly rich in new primary visual and textual sources, the book also connects afresh the Russian and Western art worlds of the period.

A must-read for anyone interested in Russian art and culture, 19th-century European art, and also the history of art exhibitions, art movements, and the art market.
