Golem Soveticus: Prigov as Brecht and Warhol in One Persona

By Aleksandr Skidan

Literary Nonfiction. Translated by Kevin M. Platt. GOLEM SOVETICUT: PRIGOV AS BRECHT AND WARHOL IN ONE PERSONA places Dmitry Aleksandrovich Prigov, one of the most significant poets and artists of the late-Soviet underground, into transnational historical context. Skidan, a highly perceptive critic and well-regarded experimental writer in his own right, describes Prigov's "mass production" of poetry and approach to ideology critique as elements of the global transformation of art practices of the late twentieth century.
