Popova

The meterorically bright and tragically brief career of the Russian painter and designer Liubov Popova is fully revealed only now, in this comprehensive study. In the first part of the book, Dmitri V. Sarabianov begins with Popova's background, re-creating the flavor of life in a prosperous, cultivated Russian family at the end of the nineteenth century. He examines the artist's work, together with that of her colleagues in Russian, as well as the effects on her work of her extensive travels.
