Exiled Russian and Ukrainian Artists in Prague during the Interwar Period
Original language description
Through several examples of the representation of Russian art in the milieu of interwar Czechoslovakia, the article shows the specificity of the local Russian cultural community which was exiled there following the October Revolution and the ensuing civil war. It examines the community's international contacts and the role its strong institutional background played in establishing several art collections-most importantly at the Slavonic Institute and the Russian Cultural-Historical Museum in Prague-as it attempted to capture and preserve for the future the art production of Russian artists abroad. It also looks at a remarkable artistic strategy used by The Scythians artist group, which was based on an alleged otherness and even exoticism of the Russian artists residing in Prague and drew on the ideology of Eurasianism promoted in the Russian exiled community of the period.
