On the west coast of the Pacific Ocean east of Vladivostok, until dawn has just begun. Russia's geographical location determines its hundreds of years of fate - across Eurasia, Eastern and Western cultures in this struggle, has become a unique cultural atmosphere to promote the formation of Russian power. Love of soul and place the Russians have been looking for my true spiritual home, the heart to.
MoscowSo, plagued the ultimate question generation after generation of people to the extension: the meaning of life, the essence of life, the eternal and infinite yearning, about the evil, crime, punishment, justice, goodness, love, about redemption, the kingdom of god...... Gogol plays a selfish little official history but also for their own do not noble life sincerely painful; Chekhov's heinous criminals always sincerely repent; Dostoevsky Las Karl works under the pen of Toy Jef J Ki sincerely acknowledge that he is a serial killer; Golgi eye before the coachman often sincerely praise: born to people, is a very proud thing!
In the second half of the nineteenth Century Russian advocate beauty is truth, therefore, critical realism style is popular, cram the nameless girl "sky", Repin's "Volga River trackers", Levitan "the abyss", "the" guards "at the morning Su are representative of this period of painting. Portraits, genre paintings, landscapes and historical paintings, no matter what kind of painting is to outline the Russian National thick, broad, depressed and even painful personality, the Russian culture is like an opera magnificent, Aria are not happy.
Because of the reason as everyone knows, the Russian cultural progress slowed abruptly in twentieth Century, but the strange thing is, more the world influence individual did appear in this impossible period, for example, Chagall, his masterpiece "animal language and music" in the lastHongkongThe auction for HK $32172000 price. His paintings draw nutrition from Russian and Jewish folklore, a fantasy, myth and grotesque features, but Chagall I think, this is truly in his heart, he could not fall from his shoes on Russian soil. Chagall's unique personal style occupies an important position in the history of modern painting, this is probably not in front of the several "having a great reputation" the golden age painters comparable. In 1945, Chagall as the Stravinsky ballet "Firebird" background, curtains and clothing design. "Phoenix" is as the representative of the western modern representative works of Stravinsky, another of his masterpiece "the rite of spring" led to another genius -- "the rite of spring" choreographer and dancer, twentieth Century outstanding dancer, the self-proclaimed "God." Russia russian. Reportedly, he is the history of ballet jump highest person, can hit legs 12 times in the air much. He not only expanded the ballet vocabulary, let dancers have more expression, even boldly depict gender in the arena of impulse.
An ancient and modern fusion of cityThe common features of twentieth Century after the Russian writer and poet is: almost all of them are dissidents, criticism and the Soviet Union made the "traitor", at the same time, they have also beenBritainScholar IsaiahBerlinPraised as "the immortal knowledge class", including the Soviet Union was stigmatized as "slut and female" female poet Anna Akhmatova; for example, to publish the novel "Doctor Zhivago", had to put the manuscript sent quietly sent abroad Pasternak, the Soviet Union was long banned in 1958 as the masterpiece of Pasternak won the Nobel literature prize!
A "Gulag Archipelago" can Solzhenitsyn expelled Writers Association, exile, also can let President Putin personally awarded him the National Medal in the decades after the Nobel Prize for literature, is also not forget him, because he represents Russia's conscience, moral force, "Solzhenitsyn's name and creation and Russia itself fate together." Russian Contemporary Art -- Moscow embodies social syndrome and hidden relations, Russian history and culture after filtration, showing the essence can see far from floating.
Almost all western people don't like Moscow, St. Petersburg and go.
In the eyes of Andre Gide, St Petersburg is the most beautiful city in the world. Stone, metal, water, there are clouds, sunset and the wind to reach the perfect combination, is Byron and Baudelaire dream of human scenery. It is reminiscent of whose landscapes, and the music of Mozart. Moscow "appallingly coarse", can be seen everywhere thought suppression traces, frustrating.
However, a reversal of fortune, after the revolution in October, before the imperial center back to Peter the great Oriental Moscow, Moscow to stand in the spotlight of the stage of history, Petersburg combustion for two hundred years the dark spirit of the glorious. Moscow, this seat was already has 700 years of history of the Mousika garden, continue to undertake the task of breeding exotic flowers and rare herbs.
On the surface, as long as 74 years of Soviet Russia, the wheel of history is broken in the modern art boat Russian cable. However, there have been 5 Nobel Prize for literature of Russian writers get this indisputable fact, is evidence of the free spirit of the persistence of Russian literature. At the same time, analysis, Russia is also modern structuralist linguistics, abstract painting and origin of atonal music heavily, modern Christian revival, modern poetry, drama, philosophy of existentialism, theoretical physics, Russian descent as any one nation.
Nina Ananias virial, Anastassja Volochkova, Nicola Ciskalize, and so on a number of world class stars still in Moscow ballet stage shine.
The second half of the twentieth Century, treasure Nikita Mikhalkov's film is eligible Russian films, many of which received international recognition, such as "the scorching sun" (the Oscar for best foreign language film).
In twentieth Century, Sergei Plockfiyev Dmitri Shostakovich, Alam Khachaturian, Georgi Sveridov et al creation's, and Rotio Shchedrin's works can not be ignored: Opera "dead souls," ballet "Anna Karenina" "Carmen suite" and "the lady with the little dog" is said of a great teacher's.
So, who dare say this prologue of vitality is not another silver age?
