The New York Times, obituary, August 17, 2016

Ernst Neizvestny, a Russian Sculptor Who Clashed With Khrushchev, Dies at 91, By William Grimes,

Ernst Neizvestny, a sculptor whose ventures into modernism put him at odds with the Soviet cultural authorities and led to a memorable confrontation with Nikita S. Khrushchev in 1962, died on Aug. 9 in Stony Brook, N.Y. He was 91.

His death was confirmed by his wife, Anna Graham.

As cultural policy in the post-Stalin era began to loosen, Mr. Neizvestny (pronounced nyai-eez-VYEST-nee) and a dozen abstract painters were invited to show their work at a large exhibition in Moscow to mark the 30th anniversary of the Moscow section of the Soviet Artists’ Union.

One visitor was Khrushchev, whose irritation at being dragged to an event in which he had no interest — agricultural machinery was more to his taste — grew into incandescent rage when he beheld the work of Mr. Neizvestny and his fellow avant-gardists.[Displaying 1000 of 9755 characters.]  Artist bio
