YOUTH UNION, a society of artists established by former members of the group Treugolnik (Elena Guro, Mikhail Matyushin, Eduard Spandikov, Iosif Shkolnik, Savely Schleifer, et al). The Youth Union was chaired by Eduard Spandikov (1910-13) and by L.I. Zheverzheev (from 1913). The meetings were held at the Union's studio (3 Zamyatin Lane). Members of the Youth Union represented a broad spectrum of creative searching, ranging from moderate innovation to cubism, futurism and orphism. The Union's exhibitions (1910-14, St. Petersburg; 1910, Riga; 1912, Moscow) presented the works of Natan Altman, V.D. Bubnov, David Burlyuk, Peter Lvov, Kazimir Malevich, Vladimir Markov, Ilya Mashkov, Olga Rozanova, E.Y. Sagaydachny, Vladimir Tatlin, Pavel Filonov, and Mark Chagall. The Union organized disputes, lectures, theatre performances (like that of the tragedy Vladimir Mayakovsky and Alexander Kruchenykh's opera Victory Over the Sun, music by Mikhail Matyushin, staged in the Luna-Park theatre, 1913), published books and collected articles under the same name (vol. 1-3, 1912-13). In 1914, the Union stopped its work, but formally existed until 1917, when it made several ineffective efforts to resume its exhibitions. Reference: Любославская Т.
