International Scientific and Practical Conference «Monumentalità & modernità - 2017: Revolution and Classics in the Architecture and Fine Arts of the Newest Time»

On June 27-29, the Association of Architects “Arkhsoyuz Kapitel” (Kapitel Magazine), the St. Petersburg Union of Architects of Russia (Council for Architectural and Historical Heritage), the Russian Institute of Art History, the Research Institute of Theory and History of Architecture and Urban Planning will present an International Scientific and Practical Conference «Monumentalità & modernità – 2017: Revolution and Classics in the Architecture and Fine Arts of the Newest Time».

The newest time turned out to be rich in the revolution. Bloody and bloodless, orange and velvet, sexual and cultural – they are still happening. Whereas the main fatal milestone is still October 1917, nevertheless we propose to reflect on the general relationship between art and rebellion. Our constant subject, which is the theme of tradition in modern times – receives thus a jubilee “revolutionary” refraction.

The conference will be held at the House of Architects (Bolshaya Morskaya, 52) in June 27, and at the Russian Institute of Art History (Isaakievskaya pl., 5) in June 28 and 29 –
