Collage in Russia: XX Century

by David Bernstein

Published to accompany an exhibition at The State Russian Museum, St. Petersburg, this catalogue beautifully presents a history of Russian collage, with an emphasis on the middle and later years of the 20th century. Works by Popova, Rodchenko, and Malevich allow the reader to see the roots of later constructions, in chapters organised by application, including texture, assemblage, decoupage, and photomontage.

[Rhonda Hankins]

Artwork is shown very nicely on full color pages. GREAT selection of famous artists and people unknown to me; great selection of diverse types of collage; great selection of different themes. Really nicely done; a pleasure and an inspiration.

[There are essays too, lots of them at the beginning, that I didn't read.]
