Hardback, Cloth, original dust jacket, format: quarto (26.5 x 31 cm / 10.5 x 12.5 inches), weight: 3 kg / 6.4 lb; Ivan Vasilievich Kliun (1873-1943) was an outstanding Russian painter, graphic designer and sculptor. This close friend of Malevich was a representative of the Russian Avant-garde (Futurism, Suprematism and Constructivism). Despite official Soviet dogma, he never abandoned abstract painting. This book by his granddaughter Svetla Kliunkova-Sloveichik may be regarded the only safe reference work for authenticating Kliun's works. Being an excellent biographical and visual resource, it does not bore the reader with art-historical theory. Indispensable for everyone concerned with Russian Avant-garde! Book Language/s: English.

From Wikipedia on Kliun" His most important contact came in 1907 when he met Kazimir Malevich and was introduced to the Russian Avant-Garde. This influenced him profoundly, although he joined the Moscow Salon [ru] when it was created in 1910 and remained a member until 1916. He originally worked in the Symboloist style but, in 1913, due to the influence of Malevich, he began exhibiting with a group from St. Petersburg known as the "Soyuz Molodyozhi" (Union of Youth). At this time, he became fond of Cubo-Futurism, began producing sculpture (under the influence of Vladimir Tatlin and later exhibited with several other Avant-Garde groups." "In 1915, he provided lithographs and a short chapter for the book, Тайные пороки академик
 86;в (The Secret Vices of Academicians) by the poet Aleksei Kruchyonykh. The book was a harsh criticism of Symbolism and decadence in general. That same year he became a follower of Malevich's Suprematism and, the following year, joined his group known as Supremus. While there, he helped prepare a manifesto and a journal that was never published. He also collaborated with the Verbovka Village Folk Centre; working with peasant artisans. From 1918 to 1921, he was a professor at Vkhutemas, the state art and technical school. From 1920, he was a member of Inkhuk (the Institute of Artistic Culture) and, after 1921, a Corresponding Member of GAHN (State Academy of Art Sciences [ru])." Not an ex-library copy.
