Are you a Russian Vanguardist art lover? You must surely know about Vladimir Tatlin's project for the Monument to the Third International (1919-20), design for a grand monumental building that was never built. It was planned to be erected in Petrograd (now St. Petersburg) after the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917, as the headquarters and monument of the Comintern (the Third International), and it was part of a design competition in which many other contemporary masters took part in!
