Description
Costakis, George counts as one of the most important art collectors of the 20th century. Collecting art for him was not a hobby, but an obsession aiming at the Russian Avant-garde. The paintings of Chagall, Malevich or Kandinsky made his life complete. Besides the fascinating portrait on this fanatic collector the documentaries about Chagall, Malevich and Kandinsky provide insight into the creative work of the Russian Avant-garde. The groundbreaking art of these three pioneers that freed themselves of representationalism was, as Malevich himself put it: revolution!
