Proletkult [from Rus. Proletarskaya kul'tura: ‘proletarian culture'].
There was a great deal of overlap in this period between Constructivism and Proletkult, the ideas of which concerning the need to create an entirely new culture struck a chord with the Constructivists.
In 1920 Eisenstein moved to Moscow, and began his career in theatre working for Proletkult.[14] His productions there were entitled Gas Masks, Listen Moscow, and Wiseman.[15] Eisenstein would then work as a designer for Vsevolod Meyerhold.
