Iurii Mikhailovich Kublanovskii is a Russian, poet, essayist, and art historian whose works, during the Soviet Era, were samizdat and emigre publications. He was a co-founder of SMOG (Courage, Thought, Image, Depth) - a literary association of young poets established in 1965 and one of the first of its kind in the Soviet Union to embrace and attempt rebellion against the control of state and party authorities. In 1975 Kublanovskii wrote an open letter "To All of Us" timed to coincide with the second anniversary of Solzhenitsyn's expulsion which resulted in all his works being banned from publication. His poetry was included in the legendary underground anthology "Metropolis." He left Russia in 1982 and lived and worked in Paris and Munich until 1990 when he returned to his homeland. His current poetry compilation "Of Foreign Land" was his first book published in Russia after Communism fell. Ill.: 0. 2.
