On the Question of the Origins of the Style of Soviet Architecture of the 1930s: the Viennese School and the Work of Otto Wagner
In the 1930s, stylistic techniques became a phenomenon of global architectural fashion, and the innovations of the 1910s were often a source of inspiration for the masters. That influence on the Art Deco style in the world and on Soviet architecture of the 1930s was exerted by the projects of Otto Wagner, whose anniversary also falls in 2021. In the works of the master and his students of the 1910s, one can notice various geometrized details, ribbed pilasters, and the motif of a tower with a dynamically installed sculpture – the theme would receive an even more effective development in the work of Boris Iofan. In the 1910s, the Vienna School of Architecture outlined two channels for further development, a complicated and ascetic variation of the style. However, what was an aesthetic revolution in the 1910s turned out to be a necessity after the catastrophe of the WWI, a consequence of the economic and ideological circumstances. So, the work of Viennese masters of the 1910s became one of the sources for Soviet architecture in the 1930s.
