INKhUK (Institute of Artistic Culture)

INKhUK, or the Institute of Artistic Culture, was an influential Soviet organization established in the early 1920s that aimed to promote and regulate modern art and cultural practices in the USSR. It served as a platform for artists, theorists, and writers to engage with revolutionary ideas and explore new forms of artistic expression. INKhUK played a significant role in developing avant-garde movements and encouraged collaboration across disciplines, helping to shape the course of Soviet art during a transformative period. Its influence extended beyond Russia, contributing to global discussions about art and culture in the 20th century.
