Black Crewneck - *Xtra Puff Ink*90% cotton 10% polyester VeshchIf, as Linda Hughes writes, a “periodical’s layout mirrors the chaotic array of events and information which typify a modern urban culture as a whole,” Veshch’s layout brings us beyond the page, beyond Berlin, beyond the new objects of machine reading, to an idealized vision of an avant-garde culture, to that perpetual expansion of human achievement built on and of the architecture of the dematerialized object. “Everything in 1921 in Berlin seemed to be an illusion.” So remembers Russian author Ilya Ehrenburg in his postwar memoirs. Wandering through memory—art shows at the Galerie Der Sturm, cold apartments, lively cafes, and heavy stone buildings adorned with “big-breasted Valkyries”—Ehrenburg repopulates a city not yet damaged by war. At the start of the 1920s, Ehrenburg was a standard-bearer of a thriving Russian scene comprising nearly 300,000 émigrés.
