Résumé:
After achieving international acclaim as a painter and designer, El Lissitzky set out in 1924 to convince the world—and himself—that he was also an architect. He did this with a project for a "horizontal skyscraper," which he gave an obscure and untranslatable name: Wolkenbügel. Eight of these buildings, perched atop slender pillars, were intended to stand at major(...)

Résumé:
After achieving international acclaim as a painter and designer, El Lissitzky set out in 1924 to convince the world—and himself—that he was also an architect. He did this with a project for a "horizontal skyscraper," which he gave an obscure and untranslatable name: Wolkenbügel. Eight of these buildings, perched atop slender pillars, were intended to stand at major intersections along Moscow's Boulevard Ring, integrating the flow of tramlines, subways, and elevators. In "Wolkenbügel", Richard Anderson explores Lissitzky's translation of visual and textual media into spatial ideas and offers an in-depth study of the surviving drawings and archival artifacts related to Lissitzky's most complex architectural proposal. This book offers a new and definitive account of how Lissitzky expanded the conceptual and representational tools available to the modern architect by drawing on many sources—including photography, typography, exhibition design, and even the elementary forms of the alphabet—to create the Wolkenbügel. Anderson shows how the production and reception of a paper project served to link key ideas and relationships that animated the worlds of art and architecture, offering a new view on received histories of the interwar avant-gardes. By attending to Lissitzky's singular architectural project, Anderson reveals the dynamics of internationality in the constitution of modern architectural culture in Europe.

Résumé:
Eliezer (Lazar) Markovitch Lissitzky (Pochinok, près de Smolensk, Russie, 1890 – Moscou, 1941), dit El Lissitzky, est l’un des artistes les plus influents, les plus novateurs et les plus controversés du début du XXe siècle. Peintre, designer, architecte et photographe prolifique, il a travaillé avec l’avant-garde soviétique et européenne des années 1920 et participé activement à l’art propagandiste stalinien des années 1930. L’une des spécificités majeures de son œuvre comme de sa vie est le « franchissement des limites » : il a rapproché les pays et les cultures, l’art et le design, l’Est et l’Ouest. Après 1917, pendant la période du communisme de guerre, il vit à l'étranger où il fait office d'ambassadeur culturel, promouvant l'art russe et les idées soviétiques à l'Ouest tout en s'informant sur la culture occidentale. Pour lui, l’art ne doit pas être considéré comme le fruit d’une expression personnelle ou comme une production d’objets, mais comme une activité sociale et collective. Avec Kazimir Malevitch, il développe un nouveau langage visuel – le suprématisme révolutionnaire – employé non seulement en peinture, mais aussi en arts graphiques et en gravure, en architecture et en théâtre, en céramique, dans les théories de l’éducation et dans les écrits révolutionnaires.

Résumé:
Lazar Markovich Lissitzky is widely known as a Russian avant-garde artist who made significant contributions to abstract art in the 1920s. Until now his experiments with photography, photomontage, and graphic and exhibition designs in the 1920s and throughout the 1930s have not been documented and thoroughly analyzed. This book explores both the political and aesthetic aspects of Lissitzky's late multimedia work from his designs for the Abstract Cabinet to his death in 1941. The author and the two contributors give special attention to Lissitzky's intense collaboration first with German and then with Soviet photographers, designers, and filmmakers, and they discuss how his various personal friendships and acquaintances influenced the directions he took in photography and design. The book presents photographic works by Lissitzky and these other artists as well as some of Lissitzky's early non-objective art that foreshadows his experiments in figurative art. It also includes Lissitzky's correspondence with his Western colleagues and his wife Sophie Kueppers. This book will accompany an exhibition of Lissitzky's photographic works at the Sprengel Museum in Hannover, Germany, Museu d'Art Contemporani de Barcelona, and Fondaçao de Serralves, Porto.

Résumé:
Reprinted facsimile edition of a masterpiece of modern typography. "For the Voice" is considered to be Lissitzky's masterpiece of modern typography which was originally published in Berlin in 1923. As Lissitzky explained, "I have tried to create an equivalent unity using the poem and the typography," this book is a magnificent example of collaboration between poet and artist. Lissitzky provided visual interpretation of Mayakovsky's poems and each of them is accompanied by a dynamic visual composition with symbolic meaning. Printed letters in red, black and white tones become pictorial signs, contributing to each poem's identity.
