| Title | Revolution as Art: Lviv Intellectuals and the Alternative Festival "Vyvykh-1990" |
| Summary | This thesis analyzes the intellectual life in Lviv in the late 80s focusing on the group of young intellectuals who presented their cultural products as alternative to the Soviet ideology and at the same time to the traditional nationalism of the political opposition which was coming to power. The public activities of the young intellectuals demonstrate attempts to change the whole field of cultural production and its system of consecration by means of change of the concept of art and orientation of their works towards the broad public. The festival of alternative culture “Vyvykh-90” which took place in Lviv in 1990 is one of the examples of the struggle for consecration that had political and social demands for changes as its core. |
