Лекция Александра Ермолина "Советское Ар-деко (эпоха Сталина)"

The second lecture of the course "History of 20th-Century Russian Architecture" is devoted to the architecture of the 1930s: we'll explore the transition from constructivism to neoclassicism, examine specific projects that incorporated unexpected, sometimes bizarre, combinations of classical, non-classical, and modernist elements, and meet architects who were forced to retrain under the influence of political and ideological pressures. Speaker: Alexander Ermolin - Architectural anthropologist, independent researcher, and specialist in sports and public buildings.
