In this critical survey, the author examines the pathbreaking typographic experimentation of early 20th century poets, artists, and designers including Guillaume Apollinaire, F. T. Marinetti, and Ilia Zdanevich. The book argues for a fresh look at their anomalous works, which exhibit aspects of literature and art, and which the author argues have been mistreated by art historians throughout the 20th century.
