Constructivist Works on Paper from the Era of the Bauhaus (La Boetie, 1971)

$85.00

Checklist for a March 2-April 3 1971 exhibition held at New York’s La Boetie Gallery. 8.5 × 11 inches, seven leaves including cover, printed recto only; stapled pictorial self-wrappers. With an introductory text, original asking prices, and concluding biographical notes. The striking cover reproduces a 1923 collage by Lajos Kassák. Helen Serger’s La Boetie gallery specialized in the early twentieth-century European avant-garde, bringing sustained attention to Bauhaus and Constructivist artists in New York. This ephemeral checklist preserves a useful record of that activity and the contemporary market for their works on paper. Featured artists include Josef Albers, Willi Baumeister, Lyonel Feininger, Wassily Kandinsky, Lajos Kassak, Paul Klee, Kasimir Malevich, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Oskar Schlemmer, and Kurt Schwitters. An ephemeral item from an influential woman-run art gallery. Light bumping and rubbing to extremities, with some toning to rear wrapper.
