Anmerkungen

Lavretyev, Aleksei Gan p.56ff; Rowell/ Wye 387 and ill. p.200; Lemmens/ Stommels, Russian Book Art 1904-2005, p.79: "In 1921, Aleksei Gan became one of the founding members of The First Working Group of Constructivists, with artists such as Rodchenko, Stepanova and Tatlin. In 1922 he wrote and published the book Constructivism. In many ways this was a crucial book because it shifted the focus from 'fine art' towards utilitarian objectives in art".
