Industrial Landscape at the 8th Exhibition of the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia "Life and Daily Life of the Peoples of the USSR" (1926, Moscow)AbstractThis article examines the industrial landscapes presented at the 8th exhibition of the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia “Life and Daily Life of the Peoples of the USSR” as an example of one of the first engagements of Soviet artists with this type of landscape. An attempt is being made to identify the beginning of the formation of the industrial landscape in the context of Soviet art, since early examples of Russian painters working in this genre have been known since the end of the 19th century. The “Life and Daily Life of the Peoples of the USSR” art exhibition served as a field for experimentation, acting as a starting point for the development of specific themes, subjects, and entire genres that would later define the face of Soviet visual art. A crucial addition to the exhibition preparation were the creative expeditions undertaken by artists across the country in summer of 1925. These expeditions laid the groundwork for such practices, which became regular in the 1930s and significantly influenced the formation of the Soviet industrial landscape. Within the article theme, a corpus of painting and graphic works characterized as industrial landscapes is described, and previously unknown archival material related to the creation of specific works in this genre for the 8th exhibition of the Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia is brought to light. The significant part of the article is a comparative analysis of early 1920s newspaper and magazine photography with paintings, which revealed a proximity in their approaches to subject matter and a parallel development of the two art forms, which influenced each other in the process of exploring the industrial theme. The relevance of the article lies in its focus on the origins of the industrial landscape in the Soviet period of 20th-century Russian art, set against the backdrop of the growing interest in industrial themes among contemporary artists and theorists.
