Through the book, the U.S.S.R. articulated its totalitarian ideologies and expressed its absolute power in an unprecedented way; through avant-garde writing and radical artistic design that was in full flower during the 1920s and 1930s. No other country, nation, government or political system promoted itself more by attracting and employing acclaimed members of the avant-garde. Among them were writers like Semion Kirsanov, Vladimir Mayakovsky, Ilya Selvinsky, Sergei Tretyakov and Kornely Zelinsky; artistic designers like Gustav Klutsis, Valentina Kulagina, El Lissitzky, Sergei Senkin, Varvara Stepanova, Solomon Telingater and Nikolai Troshin; and photographers including Dmitry Debabov, Vladimir Griuntal, Boris Ignatovich, Alexander Khlebnikov, Yeleazar Langman, Alexander Rodchenko, Georgy Petrusov; not to mention many of the best printers and book binders. 'The Soviet photobook 1920-1941' presents 160 of the most stunning and elaborately produced photobooks from this period and includes more than 400 additional reference illustrations. The book also provides short biographies of the photobook contributors, some of whom are presented here for the first time. 591 Record updated by Marcive processing 21 June 2024 650 0 Photobooks |zSoviet Union |vPictorial works. 650 0 Photobooks |zSoviet Union |vBibliography. 650 0 Photography |zSoviet Union |xHistory. 650 0 Book design |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Propaganda, Soviet. 650 0 Photographs |xPolitical aspects |zSoviet Union. 650 0 Photographers |zSoviet Union. 650 7 Fotobuch. |2gnd |0(DE-588)7660057-9 610 27 Sovetskaja Associacija Meždunarodnogo Prava. |2gnd |0(DE-588)1001167-5 650 7 Fotoböcker. |2sao 650 7 Book design. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst00836152 650 7 Photobooks. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01742293 650 7 Photographers. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061605 650 7 Photographs |xPolitical aspects. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061700 650 7 Photography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01061714 650 7 Propaganda, Soviet. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01079046 651 7 Soviet Union. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01210281 655 7 Bibliographies. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01919895 655 7 Bibliography. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423717 655 7 History. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 Illustrated works. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423873 655 7 Pictorial works. |2fast |0(OCoLC)fst01423874 655 7 Illustrated works. |2lcgft 655 7 Bibliographies. |2lcgft 700 1 Heiting, Manfred, |eeditor. 852 0 |bstacks |hTR85 |i.K35 2015
