We're looking for information on the Soviet-era critic,
memoirist, and archivist Aleksandr Fevralsky to accompany a
translation of a short critical essay entitled "Currents in
Art and Radio-Eye" written in the 1920s. Fevralsky is best
remembered as a member of the Meyerhold theater, and worked
as the organization's secretary, and later its archivist.
His memoirs are commonly quoted in the secondarly literature
on the 1920s Soviet avant-garde, but he also appears to have
worked as a critic in his own right. Any information
regarding his work as a critic, and his activities outside
the Meyerhold theater would be tremendously helpful.
Sincerely,
Doron Galili and Alyson Hrynyk
University of Chicago
