Description:
("Floating Travelers," a novel) Octavo 20x13.5 cm., wrappers, 277pp. Cover design by Natan Al'tman. Kuzmin's novel narrates the story of a love triangle, based on his cohabitation with Sergei Sudeikin and his wife Olga Glebova, a complex homoerotic entanglement. Mikhail Kuzmin (1872-1936) was a poet, musician, and novelist, a prominent contributor to the Russian Silver Age of poetry. He was associated with Mir Iskusstva, ambiguous as a symbolist and celebrated as a decadent, but was particularly important in midwifing the birth of the Acmeist group of poets (Mandelstam, Akhmatova, Gumilev), emphasizing clarity and timeless realism. He managed to stay productive and unscathed through the Soviet years up to his death, just prior to the purges which took away all of his friends and associates and would have included him. No institutional holdings for this work found worldwide. This copy uncut, with covers fresh, interior pages fragile. A rarity.

Description:
Uncommon Marshak-Tsekhanovsky collaborationOctavo 19x14 cm., wrappers, 10 pp. 30,000 copies. Illustrated by M. Tsekhanovskii. The first printing in 1924 had artwork by Boris Kustodiev. Samuil Marshak (1187-1964) enjoys a worldwide readership for his writings for children and adults, which have been translated in many languages. He collaborated with modernist artists and illustrators of note in the 1920s and 30s. Mikhail Tskhanovskii (1889-1965) is an interesting case in point. Mikhail Mikhailovich was a prominent animation artist in addition to his work as a book artist, screenwriter and sculptor. In animation he collaborated with Daniil Kharms, Aleksandr Vvedenskii and D. Shostakovich in experimental work which never was released; he was later awarded the status of National Artist. Worldcat finds no institutional holdings in North America for the edition with Tsekhanovskii's work.

The first publication devoted exclusively to Kakabadze and the in Georgian language. while he resided and worked in Paris.. David (Davit) Kakabadze (1889-1952) was one of the most important Georgian modernists of great originality. He was a visionary, decidedly modernist but eluding classification into a school. This work reviews his work in Paris over four years and traces his development from figurative realism and Georgian visual motifs into biomorphic abstraction and a thoroughly mature voice. While in Paris, Kakabadze lectured on art and wrote theoretical treatises; he was also a noted scholar. He was intrigued by kinetic art and cinematography. This book discusses a stereoscopic projector for 3-D images he invented, also reproduced here.…

Moscow-Leningrad: Tea-Kinopechat', 1928 Octavo 16.5x12.5 cm., wrappers, 16pp. Front and rear covers in blue and brown by Iakov Guminer, 18000 copies. Paul Wegener (1874-1948) was a German actor, screenwriter and film director. In 1912, he turned to the new medium of motion pictures and appeared in the 1913 version of The Student of Prague. It was while making this film that he first heard the old Jewish legend of the Golem and proceeded to adapt the story to film, co-directing and co-writing the script with Henrik Galeen. His first version of the tale The Golem (1915, now lost) was a success and firmly established Wegener's reputation. In 1917, he made a parody of the story called Der Golem und die Tänzerin, but it was his reworking of the tale, The Golem: How He Came into the World (1920) which stands as one of the classics of German cinema and helped to cement Wegener's place in cinematic history. Another of his early films was Der Yoghi (1916), in which he played the role of a yogi…

Description:
Prague: Tramp, 1930 Octavo, wrappers, 61pp. No. 12 of 50 signed copies. Géza (pseud. of Antonín Eduard) Vcelicka (1901-1966) was a poet, journalist and wanderer. He was a driving presence in the journal Tramp, which he led for years. Tramp was a wild leftist publication, and extolled the virtues of living on the edge, avoiding conventional responsibilities and behavior, not buying into any system. Tramp was taken directly from the English, probably from Jack Londons writings. Tramping became rather widespread among the Czech and Slovak youth, taking freely to the woods and escaping the humdrum monotony of factory and bourgeois life. Vcelicka defended Tramping as a way of life throughout his career and up to his death. The present work (Footprints of Dreams) is a collection of poems from the previous two years of free wandering. Vcelicka designed the cover as well as a drawing of a guitarist to accompany his poems. The book has been republished over the years, but only…
