Printing: On Layout

By Mieczysław Szczuka & Teresa Żarnowerówna
Translated from Polish by Paulina Duda & Wojtek Kwiecień-Janikowski
November 1, 2016
Published in Interwar Avant-Garde Poetry
Poland

Here, translator Duda has upgraded nonsense phrasings with a nod to our digital age, and designer Kwiecień-Janikowski maintains the dynamism of the printed version in his digital layout, but again with a clever nod to our temporal remove from the original.

A piece of visual poetry, originally by Mieczysław Szczuka and Teresa Żarnowerówna. It has been translated by Paulina Duda and redesigned for a digital medium by Wojtek Kwiecień-Janikowski.
