Join us and Marshall University Professor Slav Gratchev Sunday, April 25 at 2:00pm for the next Little Lecture of 2021! Gratchev, who was born in St. Petersburg, Russia, shares details on the repression faced by avant garde artists during Soviet rule, particularly during the Stalinist purges of the 1930s. He also cracks the door on an archive sealed by the KGB in the 1980s, and the process of translating those interviews into English for the first time—a project which has since become three different books.
