Description

Illustrated throughout in black, white and red. Subjects include visual poetry, Dieter Rot, Paul van Ostaijen, Richard Hamilton, Polish avant-garde graphics (1920's- 30's), Henryk Berlewi, Piet Zwart, Paul Schuitema, John Heartfield, Rodchenko, Herbert Bayer and Kurt Schwitters. 11" high X 9"wide, 229 pages.
