Vladimir Remes [essay]
Vladimir Remes [essay]: VLADIMIR MAJAKOVSKIJ, O TOM. Prague: Mlada Fronta, 1987. First edition. Text in Czech. A very good soft cover book with thick printed wrappers and minor shelf wear including slight rubbing to the white cover. Interior unmarked and very clean. Out-of-print. 8.25 x 11.75 scarce soft cover book with 92 pages and 32 illustrations, some in color. Russian translation of "O Tom" by poet Jiri Taufer; all other poetry translated by Milan Dvorak.
Majakovskij started out as an artist and graphic designer before becoming a famous poet. The illustrations included with his poems mirror Mayakovskyšs restless nature, a man capable of many personae, but only one kind of art -- outstanding. Includes a great deal of work by Alexander Rodchenko ( the set of Rodchenkošs photomontages from "About This," 1923), but also by El Lissitzky and Gustav Klucis among others.
