1923
El Lissitzky designed this striking page for Vladimir Mayakovsky's 1923 poetry book *For the Voice*, where bold text screams 'Order No. 2 to the Armies of Art.' It treats creativity like a military revolution—a classic move for Russian Constructivists who wanted to smash old bourgeois traditions. Lissitzky called this style 'typofacture,' mixing typography and construction to make words jump off the page with aggressive energy. The book was famously designed with thumb-tabs on the side so factory workers could quickly flip to specific poems during their short breaks!
