Abstract
“Animal motifs” are related to the evolution of the animalist trend in the 20th-century Russian sculpture which displays a wide stylistic range in plastic arts of that period. The outstanding sculptors working within this trend, who produced most expressive works, displayed inexhaustible possibilities of realistic interpretation of images of living nature which offer maximum creative freedom in this art. At the same time animalistic art successfully incorporated the line of abstract-geometric trends and, conversely, organic transformations of animal image which found expression in the works of the “second wave” of Russian avant-garde sculpture as well as in the work of their modern-day followers.
