Scope and Contents

The original of this Rumanian magazine was published in 1924 and consisted of a sole issue. HP stood for horse power. The subject of the review was modernity and all manifestations of the then current technology, entertainment, communication and transportation. The texts and typography transgressed all rules of grammar and orientation. A particularly interesting page that is photographically reproduced in this book is entitled, "Pictopoezzie" an invention of Victor Brauner & Ilarie Voronca. It is a prototypical visual poem. Marina Vanci-Perahim wrote an introductory essay that includes photographs and visual works of and by the editors. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
