Rare and fascinating avant-garde children book - inscribed --- "To a dear comrade from the front [or avant-garde] lines, 1919, 11.XI": a fine inscription by Punin, "one of the key figures of the avant garde" (Zykov, our translation here and elsewhere). "A rare gem of avant garde children's illustration" (Molok): OCLC locates only one copy (Princeton, missing the lower wrapper), to which we can add "a lesser copy acquired by the Rothschild foundation" (Princeton cataloguing), the "not very good" Ratz copy in Russia (idem) and just a few in Russian institutions (RGB, RNB, Pushkin Museum); we couldn't trace any copies at auctions in the West and three in Russia in recent decades. Continuing the tradition of Russian futurist books from the pre-revolutionary years, artist and educator Petr Miturich (18871956) illustrated this Skaz gramotnym detiam, one of his earliest and most experimental book illustration projects. He employed here a distinctive hatching technique in black ink, enhanced with generous patches of gold. The author of the tale, but also a renowned art historian and Anna Akhmatova's husband, Nikolai Punin (18881953), praised Miturich's artistic skill: "His brush has a high sensitivity, marking even the most remote and smallest fluctuations of his artistic sensibilities, like a seismograph, [.] its charm lies in a peculiar, dry femininity"; "he understands form as a kind of vegetative force, a living and developing organism" (quoted by Chegodaeva). A close friend of Velimir Khlebnikov, one of the leaders of Russian futurism (and husband to Khlebnikov's sister, Vera), Miturich in fact was actively engaged in researching the wave principle of motion in nature and, based on these studies, worked on the design of different vehicles. "Beginning in 1921, he invented a few wave propulsion devices and received patents for nine of them" (Strizhak). One such invention was a "propulsion device for ships in the form of a flexible fish body." The present edition already reflects his attempts in rendering subjects in a biomorphic and kinetic manner the children in his illustrations resemble molecules scattered across futurist, dynamic backgrounds. Equally unusual, the tale takes an unorthodox approach to celebrating the new Soviet era. It follows a group of children from a "Northern Soviet commune" searching for a Christmas tree on Christmas Eve. In the forest, they encounter a mysterious creature resembling an old man, who encourages them to turn their attention instead to the big star in the skya symbol of something new and ultimately more meaningful. Prominent art historian Iurii Gerchiuk cites this edition as a bold experiment in children's books, placing it alongside El Lissitzky's famous Tale of Two Squares (1922), the only suprematist book for children. Contemporary Soviet critics, however, were not so enthusiastic. A review in issue #2 of Kniga i revoliutsiia [Book and Revolution] (1920) praised the high production quality and the successful imitation of a child's drawing style but criticised the story for lacking a clear political message: "If this story was written for propaganda purposes, then what age group did the author have in mind? It seems he does not know much about childrenthis text might suit 68-year-olds, but children of that age do not yet respond well to political agitation." After creating this edition and only a handful of other book illustrations, Miturich went on to teach at VKhUTEMAS (Higher Art and Technical Studios), the major centre of Soviet avant-garde, from 1923 to 1930, establishing himself as one of the leading draughtsmen of the Moscow school of graphic arts in the 1920s40s. This copy is warmly inscribed by Punin, "to a dear comrade from the front [or avant-garde] lines, 1919, 18.XI," possibly addressed to a fellow artist or cultural worker involved in reforming Russian art and its institutions. Between late 1918 and March 1919, Punin was the chief editor and an active contributor to the.

Soft cover. Zustand: Near Fine. 1st Edition. Folio 32x28 cm., wrappers, (46) pp. (Piano in the Nursery) The score for eight piano pieces for children, with full page color lithographs and decorations by Pavel Miturich (1887-1956). The October revolution introduced mandatory education in Russia, and brought about a renaissance in children's books and musical works. New values required a new children's literature which often employed a bold visual language set in motion by the Futurists, and articulated by artists eager to promote the avant-garde in the new society. Arthur Lurie (Naum Izrailovich Lur'e,1892-1966) was at the center of the Russian avant-garde before and immediately after the Revolution. As the first Russian Futurist composer, he helped establish experimental music within the new Soviet State. He also set poems by his friends V. V. Mayakovsky and Anna Akhmatova (his lover) to music. Lunacharsky put him in charge of the music division of the Commissariat of Enlightenment, but he quickly grew disillusioned with the Soviet system. He went to Berlin in 1921 on an official mission and never returned to Russia. The present work was composed in 1917 in the midst of the revolution. A reproduction of this book opens the section on Children's Books in the MoMA catalogue The Russian Avant-Garde Book. With color lithos by Petr Miturich (1887-1956), painter and graphic artist. Initially a Futurist and close with Khlebnikov, he later atught at VKhUTEMAS and illustrated many books. Well known for his portraits of Vrubel', Mandelstam, and composer Artur Lurie, he collaborated with the composer on this project with wonderful results. Not in Hellyer.
