An excellent book about Russian avant-garde for children is already there. Publishers Case

MOSCOW. The graduate work of the State University of Printing was a potential bestseller.

Simplicity, according to Leonardo da Vinci, is the last effort of a genius. To talk on the most difficult topic, it is enough to find the right words, connect your imagination and know about the perceptions of your interlocutor. In order not to shy away from modern painting at a conscious age, it is useful to learn more about it even in childhood. The feet of parents who are always busy do not always reach the art gallery with sensible guides, and not every settlement has these cultural centers. But a book with vivid illustrations, and even written in an accessible language, is capable of revolutionizing children’s minds by planting seeds of the rational and eternal. Simply acquire and read it from cover to cover.

A breakthrough in this direction could be the thesis of Duni Goncharova, a graduate of the KhTOPP faculty (artistic and technical design of printed materials) of the State Press University (MGUP). Although the book about the Russian avant-garde, of which the diploma is actually, is intended for an audience of 8 to 12 years old, these frameworks are conditional. It will cause interest in advanced three-year-olds, and in curious adults.

In the future bestseller there is no “sheet” overloaded with dates, events and text names. Everything is concise, intelligible, colorful. The young reader will get an idea of the origin, evolution, history of the avant-garde, get acquainted with the basic concepts and features of this direction, the names of the founders and the brightest stars. He learns about the elements of this style in architecture, interior, fashion, advertising, painting, theater. The fact that, according to Kandinsky, the sounds of the violin are colored green, the drum roll is red, and the delicate voice of the flute has a blue tint.

The interest in the work of a certified designer of printed materials with the symbolic name of Goncharov for avant-garde fans is huge. It is only a visionary publishing house that will be able to appreciate the promising idea.
