Mayakovsky. 22 postcards

Mayakovsky! For the most exciting poet-artist-activist of the 20th century, the word alone was never enough. It must always be part of something more: performance, theatre, agitation and propaganda, posters, calls to political action, social celebration, instruction manuals, artist’s books, children’s books, poems of love and songs of despair. Here are 22 large-format postcards representing every facet of his restless creativity. Each one, whether by Mayakovsky himself or inspired by him, gives you the dynamic word, the vivid image and a vital piece of the action.
