"Russia's modern abstraction of secondary importance to define"

[bykinist]

"Abstract" or "abstract expressionism" is a genre, a conditional line of art, and yet valued creativity of individuals, rather than a label that can be prisobachit to him. Another thing is that a trend in the art may be culturally apart. For example, abstract expressionism can be uniquely described phenomenon in American art post-war era. But this does not mean that the Russian (or Soviet), the artist does not have something interesting /new "to say" about it.
