Abstract

“Ost und West” is a German magazine of the first quarter of the XX century, associated with the Zionist movement and the Jewish cultural renaissance. A unique feature of the magazine is the support of the Jewish artists from different countries of Europe. Articles on art criticism, art history and theory were devoted to the phenomenology of the national art of the Jews and considered the prospects for its evolution. According to this program, the authors of the magazine studied the work of the artists, important for the Russian art of the late XIX - early XX century. M. M. Antokolsky, I. I. Levitan, L. O. Pasternak and L. Bakst are among them. I. Ya. Ginzburg and P. D. Ettinger collaborated with the magazine. Some publications of “Ost und West” are included in the historiography of the Russian art for the first time.
