A new photo exhibition by the The Museum of Moscow History called 'Clearness of Purpose' is due to open to the public on January 23. The author, renowned photographer Mikhail Rozanov, presents a vision of Soviet architecture from the mid-20th century.
Photos of the Russian Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Frunze Military Academy and the All-Russian Exhibition Center form the centerpiece of the upcoming exhibition.
The All-Russian Exhibition Center was a project combining the politization of art and aestheticization of politics, offering ordinary Soviet citizens a glimpse of the Communist utopia to come.
The exhibition displays how the Soviet 'clearness of purpose,' despite its majestic and monumental architecture, ultimately failed to become a reality.
