Publishers G. L. Kuzmin and S. D. Dolinsky - is a Moscow publishing duo founded in 1912 by an aviator and photographer George Kuzmin and a musician Sergey Dolinsky:[1]. The first book published by George Kuzmin was the collection of the futurist group A Slap in the Face of Public Taste.[2] The collection included poems of poets-futurists - Velimir Khlebnikov, Vladimir Mayakovsky (debut), David Burliuk, Alexei Kruchenykh, Benedikt Livshits. Alexey Kruchenykh in his book Our Exit: Towards the History of Russian Futurism recalls.[3]
In the summer of 1912, together with Mayakovsky, I rented a dacha in the Straw Lodge, near Petrovsko-Razumovsky. The aviator G. Kuzmin and the musician S. Dolinsky lived right there, nearby, 1-2 houses away. Taking advantage of the fact that both of them were sincerely interested in new art and treated us very well, Mayakovsky began to persuade them to publish our “brainchild” - The Slap. The book was already ready, but the “Jack of Diamonds” betrayed us. And Kuzmin, a pilot, a leading man, said:
- I'll take a risk. I'll bet on you in the ordinary! We were all happy. - Hooray! Aviation has won! Indeed, the publisher won - The Slap quickly sold out and was already being sold as a rarity in 1913.
On the eve of the book's publication, a famous futurist manifesto was published. In the photo accompanying the manifesto, George Kuzmin and Sergey Dolinsky occupy seats in the front row.[4]
The publication of The Slap began the collaboration of the Kuzmin brothers and S. Dolinsky with the futurists, in particular with the publishing house of Alexei Kruchenykh EUY[5] [6] and continued until 1914. The books were printed in small editions (300-400 copies) in lithographic establishments in Moscow and St. Petersburg. The main “clients” of the publishing house were the futurists themselves, who were part of Hylea group. The Hyleans called their lithographed books “self-lettering” (in the words of Velimir Khlebnikov). Artists drew not only illustrations, but also fonts. The futuristic “anti-book” destroyed aesthetic patterns and stereotypes of perception with cheap paper, cardboard covers, and careless pamphlet [7]. Among the most famous publications of the publishing house of G. L. Kuzmin and S. D. Dolinsky one can also name the lithographed collection of Russian futurists Mirskontsa with illustrations by Natalia Goncharova, Mikhail Larionov, Vladimir Tatlin and works by Alexei Kruchenykh and Velimir Khlebnikov[8], the anthology Trebnik of Three[9], collection Pomade[10]. The publishing house also published the first collection of poems by Vladimir Mayakovsky, I![11]
