KRUCHENYKH, Aleksey Eliseevich (1886-1968). Poshchechina obshchestvennomu Vkusu. [Slap in the Face of Public Taste]. Moscow: G.L. Kuz’min, 1912. The manifesto of Russian Futurism – in the original publisher’s burlap wrappers. In 1912, D. Burliuk, V. Kandinsky, A. Kruchonykh, V. Mayakovsky and V. Khlebnikov signed this manifesto of Russian Futurism – a collection of poetry and prose, and the result of collaborations among some of the artists and authors who had first adhered to the Russian avant-garde. It famously encouraged its readers to ‘throw Pushkin, Dostoevsky, Tolstoi, etc., etc., overboard from the Steamship of Modernity’, together with most past and contemporary art (Terras). A copy in remarkably fresh condition. V. Terras, Handbook of Russian Literature , pp. 277, 285. Octavo (230 x 170mm). (Uniform age browning, outer edges uncut).
