Where, say, in the west may know, our art, if it is still unknown to ourselves?!

We ourselves it is not known only ptomu that for a long time, even did not want to know: the definition of "formalism" meant not even diagnosed, and often - the verdict. After all, you are not a secret that for decades, instead of studying the avant-garde work, hidden in the museum's storerooms, some "art" they were simply destroyed, while authorities dealt with the authors (according to the leading and guiding the party line)
But in the West, they just knew and studied. And sources have been enough:
1) Russian avant-garde art exhibitions in 20-ies (It was they who preserved the material, the more so that most of them were exhibition rodazhi)
2) Russian avant-garde artists who departed after the revolution in Europe and long lived and worked there. For many, in the end, it turned into exile.
3) formed at that time large, serious collection. Why is only the collection of Prince Lobanov-Rostovsky and his wife, but because they are not the only ones.
4) And of course, a huge surge of interest caused Exhibition Costacis collections (as, indeed, and his collecting activities) in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York in 1981.
I think that this is the wave of interest spread to the secular at that time, Russia, and literally "forced" us and our art to recall the great achievements of Russian avant-garde artists of the century. But remember - did not mean to start a serious study and popularize. Suffice it to say that the first serious monograph on the Russian Avant-garde Larissa Zhadov (Shadova L. Suche und Experiment. Aus der Geschichte der russischen und sowjetischen Kunst zwischen 1910 und 1930. Dresden, 1978) came to nemetskm language! As it turns out that in the USSR, it was no use to anybody? ... And was needed in the West, which had already had the whole community of people genuinely interested in and knew well (certainly better than us), Russian Avant-Garde.
