before his turn to Stalinist neoclassicism .
An update on the Modernist Architecture Archive/Database I discussed a couple posts ago. I’ve begun work on it, and have uploaded almost half of the documents I intend to include. Only a few of the Russian ones are up yet, but I’m hoping to post them over the next couple days. There are many more on the way.
I’m an anthropologist, researching a PhD on the contemporary life of Rudnev’s Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw, a 231-metre Stalinist monstet.
I’m keen to find out a little more about Rudnev’s avant-garde phase. Do you have access to any more of his drawings, or other sources about him, that you could direct me to?
I’m an architecture student and I’m doing a research on Ginzbung and his Narkomfin building. In order to writte this article I have to study this russian history period and your blog in being much helpful. Thank you.
Would you call the Bolshevik period in Russia, a time of creativity in architectural history?

I’d be monumentally grateful.
