ABC. Beiträge zum Bauen

1924-1928

The magazine ABC, published from 1924 to1928 in Basel by Hans Schmidt, Mart Stam, El Lissitzky and Emil Roth, is an important publication of the avant-garde. ABC sought possible answers to current questions about building and provided fuel for fierce controversy. ABC cultivated the poetic chord in the manner of Mayakovsky as well as the technical-scientific essay. And: ABC loved the contradiction!

Edited by Hans Schmidt, Mart Stam, El Lissitzky, and Emil Roth
