Autorenporträt

For the Voice is a collection of poems published in Berlin in 1923 by Russian poet, Vladimir Mayakovsky, in collaboration with a Russian artist El Lissitzky. Mayakovsky was born in Georgia but moved with his family to Moscow where he became active in left-wing politics. He embraced the revolution not only for the economic and social changes it would bring, but as a gateway to freedom of art and individual expression. Increasingly disillusioned with the Soviet Union under the dictator Josef Stalin, he committed suicide on April 14, 1930.
