Description: In part 1 Anna Ryleva offers a philosophical discussion of naïve art as a Weltanschauung, as a harmonious self-sufficient oasis in the world full of controversies and losses. The idyllic images of naive art present a contrast to many aspects of the modern age such technical progress, urbanization, and war. This form of art, similar to primitive art, Art brut and other trends, caught the attention at the turn of the nineteenth century of Western European and Russian avant-guard artists, and Ryleva examines the mechanisms of naïve perception on the example of Goncharova and Pirosmanashvili. In part 2 of the book Olga Baldina provides a chronicle of more recent examples of naïve art seen in the work of some of its foremost Russian representatives (Selivanov, Nikiforov, Kozyrin, Stepanov, Leonov, Petkevich, Zakharov). -- Summary written by John W. Emerich, Bronze Horseman Literary Agency.
