Adolfa Hoffmeistera by Miroslav Lamac / Hoffmeister, Adolf., 1966

Following his early realistic prints and paintings in the 1920's, the artist composed line drawing cartoons of many of his contemporaries, including Man Ray, Karel Teige, Le Corbusier, Vladimir Mayakovski, and James Joyce. By the 1930's the drawings became more political in subject matter and included cartoons of an exhibition consisting of identical Hitler portraits and sculptures, Picasso painting Guernica, and Louis Aragon holding an immense flag.

Kerim Yasar, Princeton Univsersity reviewed this book (abridged by Sackner) on the Internet:William O. Gardner's Advertising Tower: Japanese Modernism and Modernity in the 1920s joins a growing body of English-language scholarship dealing with modernist and avant-garde writers and literary movements in interwar Japan. Gardner takes an explicitly historicist approach to his subject, writing that this work embraces the challenge "of probing the relationship between the modernist literatures that made a vivid appearance in the 1920s, and the rapidly transforming experience of urban life during the same period.
