Original catalogue Gustavs Klucis. Complete Catalogue of Works in the Latvian National Museum of Art: volume I and volume II / Gustavs Klucis. Latvijas Nacionālā Mākslas Muzeja Kolekcijas Zinātniskais Katalogs: I un II sējums. The Latvian National Museum of Art, Riga has published an illustrated two-volume edition, a unique compilation of primary sources in Latvian and English dedicated to Gustav Klutsis (1895 - 1938), a pioneering Latvian photographer and a major member of the Constructivist avant-garde in the early 20th century. He is known for the Soviet revolutionary and Stalinist propaganda he produced with his wife Valentina Kulagina and for the development of photomontage techniques. In 1959 Valentina Kulagina donated to the museum a significant part of the creative heritage of the artist: more than 350 works of art (photomontages, drawings and design projects of the constructive period, posters, samples of book designs, watercolours), photographs, and the artist's sketch album. Volume I includes essays and articles by researchers on the most important aspects of Gustav Klutsis work, such as "Gustav Klucis and Constructivism" by Christina Lodder, professor of art history at the University of Kent and more than 150 of the artist's best-known works. Published by Neputns, Riga, 418 pages. Excellent condition. Volume II, the Scientific Catalogue (Zinātniskajā katalogā) provides information on 547 works of art, supplemented by the compiler's comments on their creation. Published by Neputns, Riga, 320 pages. Very good condition, minor stain.
