During the 60s, the period of Khrushtchov's government, the cutting edge of resistance to the power in place was not a group of dissidents but a group of painters. No-one needed them, they were obscure, pitiable and poor but they were nevertheless artists. They were the first to proclaim their independence from and disagreement with the authorities and the predominant ideology. They thus became the most hated enemies of the government.
