The artists of the Organic School of the Russian avant-garde found
inspiration as well as a model for artistic growth in the creative
principles of nature. Isabel Wunsche analyzes the artistic
influences, intellectual foundations, and scientific publications
that shaped the formation of these artists, the majority of whom
were based in St. Petersburg. Particular emphasis is given to the
holistic worldviews and organic approaches prevalent among artists
of the pre-revolutionary avant-garde, specifically Jan Ciaglinski,
Nikolai Kulbin, and Elena Guro, as well as the emergence of the
concept of Organic Culture as developed by Mikhail Matiushin,
practiced at the State Institute of Artistic Culture, and taught at
the reformed Art Academy in the 1920s. Discussions of faktura and
creative intuition explore the biocentric approaches that dominated
the work of Pavel Filonov, Kazimir Malevich, Voldemar Matvejs, Olga
Rozanova, and Vladimir Tatlin. The artistic approaches of the
Organic School of the Russian avant-garde were further promoted and
developed by Vladimir Sterligov and his followers between 1960 and
1990. The study examines the cultural potential as well as the
utopian dimension of the artists' approaches to creativity and
their ambitious visions for the role of art in promoting human
psychophysiological development and shaping post-revolutionary
culture.
