Refregier writes to progressive educator Harold Rugg about a proposed visit to Columbia University to talk about his work: "I am planning to bring along color slides of my easle [sic] paintings and murals and a 16 mm film of the San Francisco murals. Naturally, I would like to share my experiences, such as the work in architecture, and, perhaps, there could be some possibility of arranging an informal evening at the University or some other place." He also writes about his interest in Puerto Rican art and his plan to visit Puerto Rico.Anton Refregier [1905-1979] was a painter and muralist active in Works Progress Administration Federal Art Project commissions and in teaching art. He was a Russian immigrant to the United States. One of his best known works is his mural "The History of California", painted from 1940-1948 and located in the Rincon Center in downtown San Francisco, California. It depicts the history of the state across twenty-seven panels.One of the best-known educators during the Progressive era of education, Harold Rugg (1886-1960) was a professor of education at Teachers College of Columbia University.

He was responsible for producing the very first series of school textbooks from 1929 until the 1940s.…

(Oblong)8vo. 2 pp. With typed address. To Andre de Ridder, a Belgian art critic and strong supporter of Expressionism, whose periodical Selection' published a special Kandinsky issue in July of 1933: Je m'presse de vous dire que j'ai envoié les epreuves à M. Grohmann. Je vous prie bien de lui faire envoyer le plus tôt possible la correction des textes. Il faudra donc qu'il fasse l'ordre des pages. Vous m'enverrez peut être aussi la correction des textes je vous serrais reconnaissant. Il faudra couper les rands du cliché Komposition 4'. Vous le ferrez sur l'épreuve de cette toile (les rands n'appartient pas au tableau!). Ne l'oubliez pas s. v. b.! Ayez la complaisance de faire envyoer un exemplaire du cahier immédiatement après la parition à M. Zervos: il voulait faire une notice sur ce cahier dans le prochain Cahier de sa Revue. Je regrette que les reproductions des grandes toiles (Komposition 4' et Komp. 6') sont si petites: Komp. 6 a trois métres de longeur! [.]". As critic Andre de Ridder prepared the July 1933 Kandinsky issue of his periodical Selection', the artist remained in Berlin to wrap up business as the Bauhaus closed. Facing constant accusations of teaching un-German, degenerate art' and fostering Communism, the school could no longer function under the pressure of the Nazi Party. Kandinsky reviewed de Ridder's pieces from afar and passed them along to his friend and future biographer Will Grohmann. Two decades after their creation, his Compositions continued to spark discussion; his abstract style of painting based on the nonrepresentational properties of color and form, intended to create the same emotional impact that music did, challenged the art world both theoretically and aesthetically. The artist requests that de Ridder send a copy to publisher Christian Zervos, and suggests contacting prominent gallery owners Erhard Weyhe and John Becker, along with Galka Scheyer, the American representative for Die Blaue Vier (a group of Bauhaus artists Kandinsky, Klee, Jawlensky, and Feininger who exhibited and lectured together) to secure orders. This letter, with an abundance of important references to modern art figures as well as its discussion of his famous Compositions, holds spectacular content regarding the groundbreaking artist's life and career.

8vo. 2 pp. on bifolium, in pencil. In Russian, to his third wife, Natalya Andreevna (née Manchenka, 1902-90), about some of his paintings that were sold, his return to Moscow, where everyone is happy to see him, and a presentation he attended there: "[.] Yesterday I went to the Academy to hear a presentation by Shutko on Dziga Vertov. It was quite remarkable, and I also saw three performances by Vertov. Eisenstein sulked like a little girl. There was another presentation held by a German from Dessau, but I left before that. The people from ASNOVA [the Association of New Architects] want me to go to Moscow. Klyun will leave on Wednesday [.]". - Kirill Ivanovich Shutko (1884-1941) was editor-in-chief of the magazine "Soviet Cinema". - Somewhat wrinkled. - Malewitsch über sich.

8vo. 3 pp. on bifolium. Page 4 written by his daughter Una. In Russian, to his third wife, Natalya Andreevna (née Manchenka, 1902-90), about fighting against the AKhRR (Assotsiatsia Khudozhnikov Revolutsionnoi Rossii - Association of Artists of Revolutionary Russia), appointments with Kirill Ivanovich Shutko (with whom he talked about Dziga Vertov), Archangelski, M. P. Kristi, and Aleksei Gan, who wished to publish two essays by him. "A new AKhRR campaign against the new artistic currents has begun here, but it's their bad luck that now my camp is gaining the upper hand, and so they haven't a leg to stand on. I went to the Tretyakovka gallery and saw Kristi; on Friday I will be back there speaking about the new department and possibly about my works [.] I think I have already mentioned everything. I will receive my payment on Monday and then go and buy the tickets; I expect to be in Leningrad on Wednesday [.]". - In her postscript, Malevich's daughter Una (then aged nine) reports how happy she was that her father had come to celebrate Christmas with her. - K. I. Shutko (1884-1941) was editor-in-chief of the magazine "Soviet Cinema". - Malewitsch über sich. Zeitgenossen über Malewitsch. Briefe. Dokumente. Erinnerungen. Kritik.

4to and 8vo. Altogether 4 pp. on 2 ff. With two typed envelopes. To John Schikowski (1867-1934), editor of the Berlin magazine "Vorwärts", about hostility toward abstract art: "Various opponents who remained silent for several years have become courageous again by various processes and are happy about the almost universal reaction that overwhelmed the arts. But mostly they are happy because they can again write about the arts in their ancient, superficial tone [.] The attitude that abstract art has value merely as arts and crafts and can produce only pure ornamentation has become the received point of view. The latter, for example, was claimed by Carl Einstein in the 'Propylaea Art History' where he discussed my work [.]" (15 May 1926; transl.). In his letter of 13 October, Kandinsky discusses Schikowski's book on modern dance in detail. - At the time John Schikowski was considered one of the best critics of modern art and modern dance.…

On me demande assez souvent des photos et mon 'dépot' est as[s]ez modeste. Quand pensez vous de faire parraitre le premier numéro de votre revue? [.]". - Folds.…
