拍品专文

Vogropschem is a celebration of Russian futurism and zaum poetry. In it the Italian futurists are dismissed as irrelevatt and Russian futurism celebrated as a dynamic force of the new world. Whilst Krucheykh provides the text Rozanova and Malvich provide three lithograph illustrations which visually represent the verbal energy created by Krucheykh's fast flowing incantetory poetry. Malevich's lithographs entitled 'Peasant Woman goes for Water' and 'Arithmetic' seem to represent the creative meeting of the new and the old Russia which the futurist movement saw as the true root of progress in art, literature and politics. Although published in an eidition of 1,000 copies of Vozropsitem rarely appear.
