(The book was also featured in MoMA's blockbuster 2012 exhibition, Century of the Child, curated by Juliet Kinchin.) In her Afterword, MoMA curator Sarah Suzuki writes, "A modernist golden age for children's books, the 1920s saw some of Leningrad's most important artists and writers applying the tactics of the Russian avant-garde to this type of publishing. After the Revolution, both the new government and its art-world supporters made sweeping efforts to shape an ideologically new, modern Russian people, and they understood children's books as a crucial tool for molding young minds."![Baggage](https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/artbook/baggage-169.jpg) The Museum of Modern Art, New York Hbk, 6 x 7.5 in. / 12 pgs / 12 color.
