Erstausgabe
First Edition. Fine cloth copy in an equally fine dw, now mylar-sleeved. Particularly and surprisingly well-preserved; tight, bright, clean and especially sharp-cornered.; 8vo 8" - 9" tall; 176 pages; Physical description: 176 p. : col. Ill. ; 27 cm. Published on the occasion of the exhibition held at the British Library, November 9, 2007-March 30, 2008. Includes bibliographical references (p. 172) and index. Summary: Between 1900 and 1937 the avant garde consisted of a series of overlapping movements, such as Cubism, Expressionism, Futurism, Dadaism, Constructivism and Surrealism. Because of its very nature, the avant garde was denied traditional modes of communication and exhibition, so participants became adept at finding alternative outlets, publishing their own manifestos, poetry, magazines and books, and creating new genres, such as the artist's book and the photo-book. These frequently employed innovative design and typography, still influential today. This book focuses on the printed work of avant garde participants, demonstrating its importance to the various groups and the way in which printed works helped to disseminate information and ideas internationally. Subjects: Arts - Europe - Experimental methods - History - 20th century - Exhibitions. Arts - Political aspects - Europe - History - 20th century. 1 Kg.
