One of the rarest books by Murayama Tomoyoshi (1901–1977), a multi-talented artist, playwright, and one of the leaders of the radical artist group Mavo. Murayama traveled to Berlin (1922–1923) to study philosophy. However, he immersed himself in the European avant-garde, exhibited at the Der Sturm gallery, and was influenced by artists such as Kandinsky and Klee. Due to his involvement in the proletarian theater movement and Marxist beliefs, he was arrested several times by the Japanese authorities in the 1930s and 1940s. Lit.: Gennifer Weidenfeld, Mavo.
