HOWARD SCHICKLER GALLERY - Vladimir Mayakovsky, Selected rare books, photographs, periodicals, and documents.

Vladimir Mayakovsky, (1894-1930) one of Russia's most gifted writers and a prominent member of the avant-garde, is one of the most universally recognized characters in Russian history. Having taken his own life at the age of 36, he left behind a wealth of groundbreaking poems, prose, plays and art that continue to influence and inspire writers and artists to this day. Mayakovsky embodies the spirit of the Russian avant-garde - a creative individual who willingly sacrificed his means of self-expression to further the cause of the socialist revolution, and to give shape to a completely new Soviet culture.
