Synopsis

The Engineered Gaze reveals how Soviet painting—so often written off as mere propaganda—was shaped by control, but never entirely silenced by it.

Renowned painter and theorist Dr. Cor P.M. van Houte examines the uneasy balance between artistic vision and ideological power in the Soviet Union, with a focus on the quietly brilliant Leningrad School. These artists worked under intense political pressure, yet still managed to create works of striking sensitivity, beauty, and truth.

Through stories of censorship, creative resistance, and institutional power struggles, this book uncovers how art survived—and even flourished—within a rigid system. It challenges simple assumptions and invites readers to see Soviet art not as a monolith, but as a field of complexity, tension, and deeply human expression.
