"Modern" as a cultural project and style of art and culture by definition demonstrates a radical shift, a breaking off from the past and its culture. What are the relations between generations in this situation in Russia? This collection of articles shows that since the modern lost the conservative kernel of culture it pushes artists to a permanent search for novelty which results in divisibility and extreme diversity of streams in the arts. Contents: Generational change as a problem in the history of culture; Generations in the context of transitional historical situations; Mechanism of succession of generations in Russian culture; Subcultural aspect of generational change; Generational change as an issue in the history of the arts. Contributors to this book are scholars from the Institute of History of the Arts (Moscow).
