Avantgarde - Russland - Architektur

Moderne Literatur und Kunst – Vgl. Rowell, M. u. D. Wye. The Russian Avant Garde Book 1910-1934, MoMA, Nr. 692 u. Compton, S. Russian Avant-Garde Books 1917-34, British Library, Nr. 77 (mit Abb. S. 223 bzw. S. 135, für Heft 3, 6. Jg. (1926), mit einer Variante der Umschlaglithographie von Gan). - Die Zeitschrift SA verstand sich als Organ des OSA (Verein der gegenwärtigen Architekten), einer Ende 1925 aus der LEF hervorgegangenen Vereinigung, die sich dem Konstruktivismus in der Architektur verschrieben hatte. Das durchgehend reich bebilderte Periodikum erschien von 1926 bis 1930 zweimonatlich in insgesamt 27 Heften. "Sovremennaja Architektura" behandelte neben der sowjetischen Architektur auch westliche Ansätze von Bauhaus, Le Corbusier, Gropius u.a. Die Texte teils auch in Deutsch. - Gering gebräunt, an den Rändern mitunter minimal schutzfleckig, insgesamt wohlerhaltenes Heft der auch gestalterisch bestechenden Zeitschrift.
