	Totalitarian Art, Sculpture, Kerbel - Johnson's Russia List 6-15-03
		Soviet realism was usually political dogma gussied up in artists' garb, and overwrought figures of muscled laborers, heroic soldiers and godlike Lenins seem almost comical in an era when Marxism rests in history's dustbin.
		Kerbel's best realist works are distinguished by the opposite of overdrawn heroism: a versatility and humanity that set him apart from the assembly-line quality of much Communist sculpture.
		He was sent to Berlin to craft a monument to Soviet liberators, then to Smolensk Province for a series on Soviet heroes of labor, including prize-winning busts of a grizzled kolkhoz woman and a despondent farmer.

	Russia, Sakharov biography - JRL 5-22-05
		Andrei Dmitriyevich Sakharov (19211989), physicist turned civil rights activist and politician, Thrice Hero of Socialist Labor, winner of the Stalin and Nobel prizes, full member of the USSR Academy of Sciences and of several foreign academies, was unarguably a genius and a great and tragic figure.
		Lourie imposes no such constraints on his labors, and some of his fancies are positively ludicrous.
		Thus, he earnestly states that Yeltsin lost a couple of fingers “when pilfering grenades to fight the Germans” (p.381); a look at the map would have shown him that Butka, Yeltsin’s village in the Urals, was thousands of miles from the nearest German.

	London Shostakovich Orchestra - Peter Laki article
		After the Lady Macbeth scandal, it became impossible for Shostakovich to write another opera; the history of the genre would certainly have been different had he been able to complete his projected trilogy.
		In general, despite all the official `forgiveness' and all the Stalin Prizes and `Hero of Socialist Labor' awards, Shostakovich was never the same after 1936.
		A tragic, brooding tone had emerged in his writing, becoming more and more predominant as the years went on, especially during his final years, marked by ill health.

	Shostakovich (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
		Although he was a lover of Berg and Stravinsky, and a defendant of avant-garde compositions of all kinds, Shostakovich was remembered as the author of both published essay in the United States entitled, "Modernists are Anti-Social Acrobats," as well as an article in Pravda, denouncing the twelve tone music of Schoenberg and condemning Stravinsky's music.
		What was ironic about the Soviet critics' praise of the piece as a heroic work was that there were no elements of music that the Soviets expected, for there were no trace of Russian folk music, nor any blatant optimism in the piece.
		Shostakovich's music is a solid record of his loathing of all aspects of totalitarianism and document his as well as others' oppression under Soviet rule.
