This work by Aleksandr Rodchenko and Varvara Stepanova is one of the most wonderful collaborations in the history of Russian photobooks. It was executed by them concurrently with The Red Army, but is much more complex, dynamic, and elaborate than the latter. It was the most ambitious of any of the Soviet photography books that were produced in the 1930s. Every one of the contributors --- verbal, photographic, in design and execution --- are significant in their own right. Simply put, the most breathtaking, brilliant of photobooks in the era of great Soviet photobooks, a masterpiece of book production. Karasik 252-257, The Photobook I, pp. 168-169, This copy near fine.
