✦内容简介——

通过亚历山大-罗德钦科摄影作品的镜头，我们对苏联的技术、现代主义和国家权力之间的混乱关系有了全新的、富有启发性的理解。

Glebova 的这本书是对有关这位杰出且始终具有现实意义的人物的文献的宝贵补充。

Aglaya K. Glebova 追溯了摄影在苏联早期不断变化的含义，重新审视了艺术与政治之间的关系，而这一时期通常被认为是批判前卫艺术的末期。亚历山大-罗德钦科（1891-1956 年）是一位多才多艺的俄罗斯艺术家，也是构成主义的创始人之一，他将摄影视为革命性的现代媒介。然而，他在 20 世纪 20 年代末至 30 年代末的摄影作品却展示了对不同绘画语言的广泛探索。

Glebova 仔细解读了罗德钦科的摄影作品，揭示了他出人意料的异端摄影实践，并介绍了他在邻近媒介方面的实验，包括他与罗德钦科的艺术和生活伴侣瓦尔瓦拉-斯捷潘诺娃（Varvara Stepanova）合作进行的设计工作。

Through the lens of Aleksandr Rodchenko’s photography, a new and provocative understanding emerges of the troubled relationship between technology, modernism, and state power in the Soviet Union

“Glebova’s book is a valuable addition to the literature on this remarkable and always relevant figure.”—Peter Lowe, Russian Art + Culture

Tracing the shifting meanings of photography in the early Soviet Union, Aglaya K. Glebova reconsiders the relationship between art and politics during what is usually considered the end of the critical avant-garde. Aleksandr Rodchenko (1891–1956), a versatile Russian artist and one of Constructivism’s founders, embraced photography as a medium of revolutionary modernity. Yet his photographic work between the late 1920s and the end of the 1930s exhibits an expansive search for a different pictorial language.

In the context of the extreme transformations carried out under the first Five-Year Plans, Rodchenko’s photography questioned his own modernist commitments. At the heart of this book is Rodchenko’s infamous 1933 photo-essay on the White Sea–Baltic Canal. Glebova’s careful reading of Rodchenko’s photography reveals a surprisingly heterodox practice and brings to light experiments in adjacent media, including the collaborative design work he undertook with Varvara Stepanova, Rodchenko’s partner in art and life.
