"This book examines the many functions of paper in the fine art and aesthetics of the early twentieth-century modernist or historic avant-garde (expressionism, cubism, futurism, Dadaism, surrealism, constructivism and many more). With its many collages and photomontages, the historic avant-garde is generally considered to have transformed paper from a mere support into an artistic medium and to have assisted in art on paper gaining a firm autonomy. Bringing together an international team of scholars, this book shows that the story of paper in the avant-garde has thereby hardly been told. The first section looks at a selection of canonized individual avant-gardists' work on paper to demonstrate that the material and formal analysis of paper in the avant-garde's artistic production still holds much in store. In the second section, chapters zoom in on forms and formats of collective artistic production that deployed paper to move around reproductions of fine art works, to facilitate the dialogue between avant-gardists, to better promote their work among patrons, and to make their work available to a wider audience. Chapters in the third section lay bare how certain groups within the avant-garde began to massively create monochrome works, because these could be easily reproduced when transferred to, or reproduced as, linocuts. In the last section of the book, chapters explore how the avant-garde's attentiveness to paper almost always also implied a critique of the ways in which paper, and all that it stood for, was treated and labored in European culture and society more broadly. The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, modernism, and design"--

This beautiful collection of seven classic fairytales is organized around the theme of the fairytale princess. Each fairytale emerges from the page through a series of intricate paper sculptures cut from the pages of one of seven books, one for each of the fairytales in the collection. Each fairytale has its own particular visual flavour: for example, the story of "Sleeping Beauty" is blue and dreamy, while "The Princess and the Pea" is green and summery.
