    Moscow Sculptures Smashed By Orthodox Activists As ’Blasphemous’

    Sculptures by a renowned Soviet artist on show in central Moscow were smashed after being denounced by Orthodox activists as “blasphemous.”

    “Delusional people came to the exhibition who broke several works belonging to the Manege collection, by #Vadim_Sidur,” said Yelena Karneyeva, a spokeswoman for the Manege art center, by the Kremlin walls.

    “Several sculptures are completely smashed,” she said on August 14, adding that police had come and led away the activists. The works were made of plaster and linoleum.

    The exhibition — called Sculptures That We Don’t See — showed works by Soviet sculptors that did not see the light of day during the Soviet period because they were nonconformist.

    The show, which opened to the public on August 14, included some works with religious themes, including a crucifixion bas-relief.

    Sidur was an avant-garde artist unable to show his nonconformist works publicly in the Soviet era. He died in 1986. A museum in Moscow is now dedicated to his work, and his art has been sold at international auction houses such as Sotheby’s.

      On August 14th, a group exhibition of legendary Moscow sculptors, participants of the «LeSS» art group, Vadim Sidur, Nikolai Silis and Vladimir Lemport, is opening at the Central exhibition hall Manege.
       
      The exhibition «The Sculptures We Do Not See» is a full-scale research of the so-called «cellar nonconformism» – a phenomenon that took place in the Soviet Union side-by-side with the conventional art scene. Dozens of works of Vadim Sidur, Leonid Berlin, Anatoli Slepyshev and Alexander Pozin from the MEA Manege collection are exhibited together with Nikolai Silis’s and Vladimir Lemport’s art works.
       
      The analysis of Soviet formalism is impossible when considered outside of Soviet and contemporary Russian art history. That is why works by such contemporary artists as Anatoli Osmolovski, Haim Sokol, Dmitri Gutov, Alexander Povzner and many others will also be on display.
       
      In 1954 young Moscow sculptors Vladimir Lemport, Vadim Sidur and Nikolai Silis set up an art group «LeSS» (an acronym deriving from their last names). This group stayed active until 1968. While fulfilling state demands, the three sculptors took part in creating the most vivid form of ideological propaganda – monumental sculptures integrated into the architecture of late Soviet modernism. But, due to the exclusion of formalism from the USSR art history, these artists had to switch to small statuary, so their works were to stay in the cellars of their studios for ages.

      Le groupe Божья воля (La volonté de Dieu) s’était déjà manifesté en 2013 en perturbant le Musée d’État Darwin et affichant la date conforme au calendrier créationniste orthodoxe, 7522.

      В марте 2013 года участники движения «Божья воля», которое возглавляет Цорионов, привлекли внимание СМИ тем, что, по данным пресс-службы партии «Яблока», ворвались в офис этой партии в Москве, взяли всю находящуюся в свободном доступе литературу, изданную партией, и сожгли ее у вестибюля станции «Новокузнецкая».

      Кроме того, участники «Божьей воли» организовали акцию в Государственном Дарвиновском музее в Москве. Они читали нараспев строки из Библии «В начале сотворил Бог небо и землю», осыпали посетителей, многие из которых были с детьми, разноцветными листовками, а в одном из залов развернули плакаты. Содержание листовок и плакатов сводилось к мысли, что теория эволюции является псевдонаучной. Один из участников залез на крышу здания с белым флагом, на котором было написано «7522», и стал им размахивать. Затем он закрепил там баннер с надписью: «Бог сотворил мир».

      The State Darwin Museum is a natural history museum in Moscow. The museum was founded in 1907 by Alexander Kohts (1880-1964) and was the world’s first museum of evolution explaining the work of Charles Darwin as a causal explanation of nature. The museum taxidermist was then Filipp Fedulov.
