There is surprisingly little, and certainly nothing comprehensive,
written about the contemporary Russian scene now. What appear in
the West are mostly reports about so-called 'dissidents', not about
what is happening in this vast culture, taken as a whole. Too
often, these reports seem to be primarily inspired by a desire to
demonstrate Western cultural and political superiority. The aim of
Russian Art in the New Millennium is not to support any one cause,
but to look at the situation as it now exists objectively and to
give as wide and truthful a view as possible. Russian art during
the period under review - the last two decades - has been evolving
rapidly and in many directions. Hence there are sections on digital
art, landscape paintings, graffiti, religious art and others.
Furthermore, in addition to the continuing influence of the
traditional centres for art - Moscow and St Petersburg - a number
of provincial Russian cities have developed distinctive art worlds
of their own. Russian Art in the New Millennium attempts to
discover this terra incognita and to encompass this extremely
various, but also intensely national art scene in Russia in one
volume.
