he fateful events in 1917 Russia, ended centuries of Tsarist rule. From this point forward for 15 years, Russian society had a new found freedom open for exploration. The art community felt this and embraced the change. Artists like Kandinsky, Malevich, Chagall and Rodchenko had the first taste of this new adventure, which quickly came to an end in 1932 under Stalins suppression.

The Royal Academy of Arts will be holding a vast ranging exhibition paying homage to the post Revolutionary Russia.
