<h2>Sergey Chubraev archive</h2>
<p>The archive contains materials on the life and work of Sergey Kuryokhin, collected by jazz, rock, and experimental music connoisseur Sergey Chubraev from 2003 to 2017.</p>
<p>Sergey Kuryokhin was among the key figures of the new Leningrad musical and art scenes that emerged in the late Soviet era and drew international attention during perestroika. Kuryokhin was a composer, experimented with keyboards, made mockumentaries, organized and directed concerts and performances by the band Pop‑Mekhanika, and was involved in politics. The archive contains documents on his numerous projects and offers insight into the interactions between various groups, communities, and social circles in the 1980s and 1990s.</p>
<p>The archive began with a collection of video recordings of concerts, rehearsals, and TV shows and grew to include over 100 documentary videos, feature films scored by Kuryokhin (Mister Designer by Oleg Teptsov, Buster’s Bedroom by Rebecca Horn, and The Castle by Aleksei Balabanov, among other works) and movies and documentaries that feature him as an actor. The archive contains Chubraev’s video interviews with poet and writer Arkadii Dragomoshchenko, musicians Boris Grebenshchikov, Sergey Letov, Vladimir Volkov, and Oleg Karavaichuk, Kuryokhin’s first producer Leo Feigin, artists Vladislav Gavrilchik, Oleg Kotelnikov, Evgeny Yufit, German Vinogradov and Sergei Anufriev, directors Sergey Debizhev and Sergei Solovyov, and others. Also included in the archive are audio interviews recorded by Alexander Kushner as he was working on his book Sergey Kuryokhin: Bezumnaya mekhanika russkogo roka [Sergey Kuryokhin: The Mad Mechanics of Russian Rock].</p>
<p>The archive also includes letters and manuscripts by Sergey Kuryokhin; a collection of his records, posters, flyers, booklets and concert programs; as a selection of press clippings from the 1980s and 1990s; and photographs of apartment meetings and Pop‑Mekhanika performances. There is also a record player that belonged to Kuryokhin and musical instruments Pop‑Mekhanika played: Alexander “Fagot” Alexandrov’s saxophone and mbira, Sergey Letov’s flute, and Nikolai Olshevsky’s trombone.</p>
<h2>About the collector</h2>
