The representation of the interiors in exhibitions – as “exemplary interiors” – and in the graphic, photographic, cinematographic images, is studied here according to the theme of the “anti-perspective” that characterises the two opposite tendencies – the abstractionist and the realist one – in the teaching of graphic arts at VChUTEMAS in Moscow. On the one hand, the best example of Proun, intended both as a graphic representation and a spatial installation, is the Kabinett der Abstrakten by El Lissitzky. On the other hand, Pavel Florenskij’s teaching opposes to the naive abstractionism a realist semiotics of the work of art and an anti-Kantian geometry that we exemplify by showing its analogy with the conception of “internal space” expressed by Andrej Tarkovskij in Solaris.

Abstract
The representation of the interiors in exhibitions – as “exemplary interiors” – and in the graphic, photographic, cinematographic images, is studied here according to the theme of the “anti-perspective” that characterises the two opposite tendencies – the abstractionist and the realist one – in the teaching of graphic arts at VChUTEMAS in Moscow. On the one hand, the best example of Proun, intended both as a graphic representation and a spatial installation, is the Kabinett der Abstrakten by El Lissitzky. On the other hand, Pavel Florenskij’s teaching opposes to the naive abstractionism a realist semiotics of the work of art and an anti-Kantian geometry that we exemplify by showing its analogy with the conception of “internal space” expressed by Andrej Tarkovskij in Solaris.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
