Theatrum Orbis Terrarum is the name of an atlas published by Abraham Ortelius in Antwerp in 1570, bundling together the knowledge accumulated during the age of discovery and representing the world as a theatre, which in those days didn t refer just to a stage. It is in the same spirit, that is the assembly and comparison of different and at first sight contrasting experiences, that the featured artists have been chosen to represent the Russian Federation at the 2017 Venice Biennale. Grisha Bruskin, Recycle Group, Sasha Pirogova, and Dmitri Kourliandski belong to different generations, have different backgrounds, and take different approaches to art. But together they reflect a picture of Russian contemporary art made up of myriad facets and details.

This stunning volume offers an in-depth look at the vibrant artistic culture of Uzbekistan, from its groundbreaking avant-gardes to the rise of Socialist Realism. During the 2024 Biennale, in Venice and Florence, masterpieces from the Nukus and Tashkent state museums in Uzbekistan were presented to the European public for the first time. The artistic and cultural significance of a virtually unknown area of twentieth-century painting finally came to light. This volume offers an extensive introduction to Uzbek pictorial culture during the first half of the twentieth century when the country gained institutional autonomy, as a republic within the Soviet Union with a focus on the extraordinary artistic experience defined by the authors of this volume as the Avanguardia Orientalis. This movement, spanning at least three decades, involved Uzbek, Kazakh, Armenian, Russian, Eastern Russian, Jewish, Siberian, Azerbaijani, and Ukrainian artists. Through their deep commitment to 'dialogue,' they created an authentic, original, and recognizable language, albeit one expressed with various individual nuances. This book names sixteen key iconographic themes from caravans to clothing, landscapes to still lifes each explored through a representative work and a series of comparative studies of pieces by the same artist and their contemporaries. Readers will discover a visual repertoire almost never seen in the West, including paintings housed in Uzbekistan s most important museums as well as rare historical photographs.
