About This Item
Budapest: A Kepzomuveszeti Uj Tarsasag, 1926 Folio 31x23.5 cm, wrappers, 20, 16, 16 pp. KUT was the acronym of the group New Society of Artists (Képzömüvészeti Új Társaság) in 1924 promoting art associated with French modernism initially, with artists Rippl-Rónai, Vaszary, Csók and Márffy staging exhibitions in large museum venues. By the time the group produced this journal for two years with eleven numbers (two double numbers) younger artists (Moholy-Nagy, Kmetty, Bernáth, Medgyessy, Égri, et al) with more progressive tendencies took the spotlight or contributed directly. Ernö Kállai sets the tone in the first number, providing an international scope to the publishing vision. It also featured first publications of literary work by Aladár Komlós (of the Ma group) and Lörinc Szabó, whose first important work appears, among others. Unlike other front-line art journals, KUT did not emphasize a political agenda, concentrating entirely on cultural issues. However, the art emphasized was all contemporary modernist and challenging for a large readership, and was published in small printing, with the result that it is quite scarce today, with two holdings in Europe and one partial holding in North America (UC Berkeley). We offer 3 numbers from 1926, all in very good condition.
