"ART WAS ARTIFICIALLY REHEATED BY THE HYPOCRISY OF BOURGEOIS CULTURE AND FINALLY CRASHED AGAINST THE MECHANICAL WORLD OF OUR AGE. DEATH TO ART!"

This contructivist sentiment is one of the opening phrases in I. Yaskinkayas book "Soviet textile of the Revolutionary Period" (on which I only googled a few commercial links) that I raced through while the host of the 40th birthday I attended on saturday, lay paralized with hangovers and kid-plague.
The book covers first and foremost, as the title states, the textile production of the revolutionary period, but also through the introduction it frames a very interesting picture of art-contectures as a public mean of control.
The conflation of art and ideologi as presented in the book shows the early marking of very talented market strategies.
Moreover the textile itself is stunningly welldone and, in retroperspect, pretty enteraining. Imagine your 3 million kroner flat with wall to wall carpets picturing woven patterns of tractors, collectification, militarization, buildingsites, factories...
