Film Posters of the Russian Avant-Garde by
Susan Pack. Recommended!
Susan
Pack's overview of the Russian avant-garde film poster, is a visual delight, and a welcome
addition to the library of anyone interested in graphic design. This book is a handsome
collection of pre-Communist posters from such notable graphic artists as the Stenberg
brothers, and Alexander Rodchenko, as well as many other lesser known, yet talented
artisans. Anyone familiar with Russian graphics of this period are in for a treat, and
those seeing them for the first time will soon become addicted to their graphic impact,
and innovative type treatments.
Published in 1996. Hardvover. 320 pages. 13 x 9.75 in. $54.
