Utopia for dinner
A performance to celebrate the salvation and renovation of the Factory-kitchen in Samara. A masterpiece of Constructivism, the work of Russia’s first female architect, Ekaterina Maximova, this building was a catering establishment that was meant to free women from domestic chores and make them full members of society. The building will now house the Samara branch of the Tretyakov Gallery.
"In the future, the factory-kitchen should become a key point of social settlement, freeing women from boring domestic duties and enabling them to live a full life on an equal footing with men".
Еkaterina Maximova, architect of the factory-kitchen in Samara, late 1920s
