This article evaluates the activity of the carpet weaving laboratory of the Scientific Research Institute of Art Industry (NIIKhP, Moscow) and the development of the artisanal production of consumer goods based on folk traditions in the south of western Siberia in the 1950s‑60s. The authors consider the government’s emphasis on craft associations (artels) in the context of socialist modernization; its aim was to study and reestablish traditional crafts in order to shape Soviet fashion. The article discusses expeditions of the NIIKhP that surveyed the ornamental and applied art and handicrafts of the Turkic and Russian population. During the expeditions, members of the Institute identified specialized craft associations in Barnaul, Biysk, and Gorno-Altaisk and worked with them to begin manufacturing their products. The results of this survey of the conditions and prospects for the development of arts and crafts in the region were circulated, together with recommendations for their growth and suggestions for work with regional party and state officials to accomplish them. The authors conclude that the material passed down by the specialists of the Institute may serve not only as a unique basis for the study of arts and crafts of the past but may also be relevant to today’s scholarly and commercial practices.
