Remembering the Art of Communism: Analysis of Contradiction: Approaches and Transgressions

Abstract The author’s intention in this article is to question the relations of ‘modernism’ and ‘Communism’ in specific cultural texts, ie, artworks and artistic paradigms. In Cold War Western literature we usually find authors who write about the difference and distance between modernism in the West and Communism in the East of Europe, in other words, about the East–West divide in the world. Today it seems as if these differences and distances vaporise and – in memory or in erased cultural traces – we recognise behind them different modes of modernism. Modernism and Communism are no longer seen as relatively different (’for modernism’ and ‘against modern’), but as relatively different answers to similarly contradictory stimuli.
