Summary:

Avant-Garde Post- follows seven Russophone poets as they reinvigorate leftist art in the wake of state socialism. Rejecting both the Putin regime--with its selective mobilizations of Soviet nostalgia--and Western discourses of liberal superiority, this circle is reviving class-based critique through experimental forms and global collaborations.
