The Fabric of the Avant-Garde

The Russian textile avant-garde of the 1920s and 1930s is a multifaceted phenomenon. It is a fusion of experimental abstractionism, the laws of combinatorics of folk ornament, the functionality of Russian constructivism, and the fashion trends of the early 20th... century. We invite the reader to view the clothing and fabrics of the avant-garde through the eyes of artist-designers, representatives of the textile design school of the revolutionary era, including a brief but vivid period of agitatextile. This period summarized numerous discussions about styles, technologies, and the role of the artist-producer in "restructuring everyday life".
