Pub Note:
ИHДУCTPИЯ COЦИAЛИЗMA, by Russian avant-garde artist El Lissitzky (1890-1941); published by IzoGiz (State Publishing House of Fine Art) in Moscow, 1935. Title translates to: The Industry of Socialism. Artist book in seven volumes, housed inside a gray slipcase decorated with a silver-embossed photomontage of two comrades. The work is comprised of propaganda pamphlets in Constructivist design with views presented as photogravures and photomontages in varying colors, as well as drawings, paintings, portraits and maps - created with much graphic experimentation - all intended to impress the rest of the world with the enormous industrial progress the Soviet Union made in its first 20 years. The silver embossed wrappers and the rivets on the slipcase further carry out the industrial theme. Each volume presents a theme, with volume titles translating to: 1. The new face of the USSR — 2. The Bolsheviks awaken the natural wealth of the country — 3. Machinery - the key of reconstruction — 4. Go and above! — 5. Man - on the tractor, Soviet Union - on the car — 6. These are living people, this is us and you — 7. Heavy Industry USSR : Maps. First six volumes include descriptive text throughout, as well as quotations from Joseph Stalin, Vladimir Lenin, Kliment Voroshilov and Sergo Ordzhonikidze. Seventh volume contains two maps of the Soviet Union, divided into the European and Asian areas. Maps feature the enterprises of the USSR NKTP, operating and under construction, as of January 1, 1935. Enterprises include railways, oil pipelines, canals, mines and the electrical network.
