As communism collapses into ruins, Boris Groys provokes our interest in the aesthetic goals pursued with such catastrophic consequences by its founders. Interpreting totalitarian art and literature in the context of cultural history, this brilliant essay likens totalitarian aims to the modernists' demands that art should move from depicting to transforming the world. The revolutionaries of October 1917 promised to create a society that was not only more just and more economically stable but also more beautiful, and they intended that the entire life of the nation be completely subordinate to Communist party leaders commissioned to regulate, harmonize, and create a single "artistic" whole out of even the most minute details. What were the origins of this idea? And what were its artistic and literary ramifications? In addressing these issues, Groys questions the view that socialist realism was an "art for the masses." Groys argues instead that the "total art" proposed by Stalin and his followers was formulated by well-educated elites who had assimilated the experience of the avant-garde and been brought to socialist realism by the future-oriented logic of avant-garde thinking. After explaining the internal evolution of Stalinist art, Groys shows how socialist realism gradually disintegrated after Stalin's death. In an undecided and insecure Soviet culture, artists focused on restoring historical continuity or practicing "sots art," a term derived from the combined names of socialist realism (sotsrealizm) and pop art. Increasingly popular in the West, sots-artists incorporate the Stalin myth into world mythology and demonstrate its similarity to supposedly opposing myths.

很久以前讀過,印象很深。Groys目前好像同時在德國一所藝術機構和紐約大學任教,在紐約上過他一個學期的課,聽懂的東西很少,但印象也很深。尤其記得一次去和他談學期作業,不知怎的就變成瞭他嚮我宣講生活中沒有幸福,也不可能有幸福…… 最近因為自己論文的關係,想再找來讀...

格羅伊斯的觀點似乎是一以貫之的,但這裏和《共産主義後記》的弦外之音總是有微妙的差彆。總之不失為一部簡明的“蘇聯先鋒派的前世今生”

評分對於我這種對蘇聯/俄羅斯藝術和政治幾乎一無所知的人來說,這本書簡直太有趣太revealing瞭。Groys認為Russian Avant-garde和social realist art並不是完全對立的。反而,Social realism under Stalin period在理論基礎上與Russian Avant-garde其實一脈相承。avant-garde也並不是人們通常認為的progressive,social realism也非regressive。
