"Engineer, Agitator, Constructor: The Artist Reinvented, at the Museum of Modern Art, explores the ways, in the 1920s and '30s, adventurous art was put into the service of politics and social change in Soviet Russia, the Netherlands, Germany, Italy and elsewhere in Europe.--Karen Wilkin ""Wall Street Journal"" Superabundant and full of eye-opening creative churn.--Rachel Saltz ""New York Times"" The scope is encyclopedic, surveying a time when individuals sacrificed their artistic independence to ideological programs of mass appeal [...]That needn't constitute a failure. It may be a clear-eyed choice made on principle.--Peter Schjeldahl ""New Yorker"" Looks at the reinvention of the role of the artist and the functions of art that took place in tandem with historical shifts in industry, technology. and labor amidst the impact of World War I...-- ""Architectural Record"" Stunning rarely seen images and a well-constructed text about known and lesser known artists and works of the early twentieth-century avant-garde help shape this exhibition catalog [... ]the overall book manages to convey a cohesive picture of the collection, movements, and artists represented ...made art for a changing world through activism, agitation, propaganda, use of technological innovations, advertising, and marketing.--Barbara Ann Opar ""ARLIS/NA Reviews"""
