Mayakovsky: Twenty Years of Work - An Exhibition from the State Museum of Literature Moscow

Richly illustrated exhibition catalog documenting a touring retrospective on the life and multifaceted career of Vladimir Mayakovsky (1893–1930), the iconic Russian Futurist poet, playwright, artist, and revolutionary propagandist. The book serves as a companion to an exhibition organised by the State Museum of Literature in Moscow, which drew from Mayakovsky's own 1920s self-curated show titled "Twenty Years of Work." This original exhibition was a bold, autobiographical display where Mayakovsky presented his creative output as a "self-portrait" spanning his early years to his death, blending poetry, visual art, posters, and ephemera to reflect his role in the Russian Revolution and Soviet culture.
