The Moscow Metro is a true monument of architecture and ideology of a bygone era. After the opening of the first stations in the country, they realized that the metro was not just a feasible and effective project. There was a desire to make the most beautiful metro in the world.
Alexey Dushkin, Georgy Krutikov, Alexander Gontskevich, Boris Vilensky, Ivan Fomin, Nikolai Ladovsky, Nikolai Kolli, Matvey Manizer, Dmitry Chechulin - thanks to these talented Soviet architects, the first line of the Moscow metro appeared.
How did the development of the historical legacy take place when the stations were created? What techniques have been used to neutralize the feeling of being underground? How has Egyptomania affected the Moscow metro? What semi-precious stone was used to decorate the Mayakovskaya station? At which station can you see the porcelain bas-reliefs of the sculptor-ceramist Natalia Danko? You will learn about all this in the new issue on the Dostoevsky Lecture channel.
Sergey Kavtaradze, an architectural historian, art critic, senior lecturer at the Higher School of Economics, will tell you how to learn to understand architecture just by being in the metro.
