Hello to all Russian Avant-garde Gallery visitors and subscribers.
September was a month of Jewish holidays - Rosh HaShana (New Year), Yom Kippur (Day of Atonement) and Sukkot (Tabernacles). To all our Jewish subscribers and visitors - may the year go with its curses, and may the year come with its blessings. To the rest - it's always good to have a cause for celebration, so I wish you a good year, regardless of your faith or lack thereof.
So here are the Russian Avant-garde Gallery's news for current month.
New Movements Opened
This month I have made new pages for five new movements, which I did not hitherto have:
There are still no artists published for those movements, but it will gradually be rectified.
In addition, I have prepared and published member lists for 13 of the movements, which may be accessed from the movement pages. The remaining few will be published next month.
Concept and Design Changes
As I informed you last month, I plan to make some changes on the website in order to make it more friendly and informative mostly for the uninformed in Russian Avant-garde.
The plan is coming along very nicely, I hope to complete this stage within two months. The publishing of all movements and member lists is in fact a step on the path to completion of this new concept.
I would be very happy to hear your suggestions and ideas. Anything you suggest will be considered, so please do so.
To send me your suggestions you may use any of the following ways:
Buying Books? Get Them Through The Gallery!
I want to remind you to check out the categories for Recommended Books, Films and the one of Specialized Bookshops, where you may find many of the books out there by category, by artist, by movement - and see recommendations about them:
Your buying books, films, posters, calendars through the Gallery will also contribute to supporting of this website, which takes a lot of labour and time to develop and move forward. So do make use of the work invested in bringing the books to you.
If you know of a bookshop that will be interesting for the others - do tell me about it, and I will contact them and make sure it is represented here for everyone's benefit.

As always, I would like to remind everybody to occasionally refresh the pages, due to the constant changes and additions on the website. This will ensure that you always see the latest version of the pages, and not the page cached (stored) on your computer from the last visit.
If you do not know how to do this - you can see instructions in the first issue of the newsletter. Or see your web browser help section.
