Less well-known, however, is his work as an illustrator and theorist. This exhibition displays Janco\u2019s outstanding position in the Romanian avant-garde, based on his book illustrations, on the contribution he made to the founding of Romanian cultural periodicals, and on illustrations and articles he published in them. All the works were produced in Romania from 1912 until 1941, when Janco moved to Palestine. Most of them are from the collection of Adrian Buga of Bucharest, and were brought to Israel especially for exhibition in the Museum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Periodicals 1912-1932<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">The treaties signed at the end of World War I annexed considerable territory to Romania, including Transylvania, Bukovina, and Bessarabia, substantially increasing its population and natural resources. \u201cGreater Romania\u201d flourished between the wars, and was marked by a lively social and cultural scene (which took its cues from Paris and Munich in the west), as well as corrupt politicians, and social, political, and economic criticism. Against this background, the first tokens of modernism began to emerge. The journals published in Romania in the early part of the twentieth century occupy an important place in the annals of Romanian modernism and avant-garde. Some were noted for their innovative graphics and flouting of the dictates of logic, others for their radical articles. Their contributors included leading figures in the cultural world of Romania and Europe at large.[1]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">One of the earliest works in the exhibition, a pencil drawing of a woman playing the piano, appeared in March, 1912 in&nbsp;<em>Flacara<\/em>&nbsp;(The Flame), no. 24. The caption reads: \u201cIllustration by Marcel Janco, talented young student of Josef Iser.\u201d Iser, Janco\u2019s art teacher in his adolescence, had an illustration of his own in the first issue of&nbsp;<em>Flacara<\/em>.[2]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">A few months later, in October 1912, 17-year-old Janco and several schoolmates, the artists and poets Samuel Rosenstock (later known as Tristan Tzara), Eugen Iovanaki (later Ion Vinea), Paul Chapier, and Jacques G. Costin, started the magazine&nbsp;<em>Simbolul<\/em>&nbsp;(The Symbol), one of the earliest modernist publications in Romania and close in spirit to Romanian symbolism of the time. Janco served as graphics editor, illustrator, and funder of the magazine, which put out several issues until its demise in the spring of 1913.[3]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">In October 1915, Janco collaborated on<em>&nbsp;Chemarea<\/em>&nbsp;(The Call), a magazine published by Ion Vinea and members of the&nbsp;<em>Simbolul<\/em>&nbsp;group, which came out against intolerance and anti-Semitism in Romanian politics. Then, ten years after launching their first journal, several of the founding fathers of&nbsp;<em>Simbolul<\/em>&nbsp;established the most important mouthpiece of the Romanian avant garde,&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>(Contemporary),[4] whose first edition appeared on June 3, 1922. The periodical remained in publication until January 1932, producing a total of 102 issues consisting of 4-16 pages in changing format. Although the magazine began as a weekly, from the tenth issue it came out bi-weekly, and in its final years appeared erratically.&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>&nbsp;marked the beginning of the wave of avant garde that washed over Romania. In its early period, the journal had a socialist spirit, printing articles critical of the political regime and its reserved attitudetowards modernism and creativity. Later it adopted a more radical approach.[5] In its first issue, it also spoke out against anti-Semitism and in praise of minorities. Janco made every effort to position the periodical at the center of international modernism. Although his official title was artistic director, he was also&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>\u2019s chief theorist, promoting the abstract as the essence of the avant garde, an attitude reflected in his illustrations. His contributions to the magazine included 38 articles, 34 lithographs and linocuts, 34 portraits, 29 drawings, 18 photographs of buildings he had designed, 10 architectural plans, and 9 sketches of theater sets.[6] He also played a major role in defining&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>\u2019s international character through his connections with world artists such as Braque, Brancusi, and Breton. Janco\u2019s interviews with these figures were accompanied by his portraits of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">October 1924 saw the publication of&nbsp;<em>75HP<\/em>], the most radical journal in Romania at the time,[7] whose single issue included a drawing by Janco. He was also involved in&nbsp;<em>Punct<\/em>&nbsp;(Point), another magazine founded in the same year. In addition, from 1924-1926, Janco contributed a number of caricatures to&nbsp;<em>Cuvantul Liber<\/em>&nbsp;(The Free Word), an anti-establishment political-cultural weekly edited at the time by Eugen Filotti. Conveying a message of social criticism, the caricatures dealt with issues such as unemployment, political corruption, and absence of law and order. Drawings of a corpse with a knife in its back and a raven lurking nearby illustrated articles on the corruption and immorality of politicians.[8] Another version of this illustration appeared in&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>&nbsp;on 6 January, 1923.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">In April 1925,&nbsp;<em>Puntea de Fildes<\/em>&nbsp;(Ivory Bridge), a Jewish cultural magazine containing poetry, short essays, and illustrations, was founded to recruit funds for the construction of the Hebrew University in Jerusalem. The first issue included an article by Janco entitled \u201cThe Rebuilding of Palestine,\u201d in which he advocated abandoning orientalism in favor of modern architectural principles. In the second issue, which appeared in May, 1926, he provided an example of this style of architecture in a plan for a villa in Palestine he designed together with his brother, Jules.[9] The year 1928 marked the start of a second wave of Romanian avant garde, which gravitated around the journal&nbsp;<em>UNU<\/em>, to which Janco also contributed illustrations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">Janco\u2019s essays dealt with a wide range of topics, and warrant close analysis in their own right.[10] In them, he presented his ideas on art, architecture, and his artist friends. In reference to the abstract, for example, he wrote: \u201cThe abstract ignores the model and the look of nature, which are the old excuse for painting\u2026 It starts with line and color as an absolute value in the same way that music combines sounds to achieve harmony. The abstract painting uses colors to achieve a similar harmonious effect\u201d (<em>Contimporanul<\/em>, no. 4, 1922, p. 13). And of color he stated: \u201cThe world of color is more expressive and more mysterious than the world of sound and much richer\u2026There is no clear distinction in the world of color. Sometimes red looks quite blue and green quite yellow\u201d (<em>Contimporanul<\/em>, no. 73, 1927, p. 7).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Books 1929-1947<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">In 1916, when Marcel Janco was active in the Dada group in Zurich, he created seven linocuts for Tristan Tzara\u2019s&nbsp;<em>La Premi\u00e8re Aventure&nbsp;C\u00e9leste de Monsieur Antipyrine<\/em>. Back in Romania in the 1920s and 1930s, he collaborated with other authors. Nine Romanian books with his drawings and linocuts, most of them portraits, are displayed in the exhibition. Some contain a single depiction of the author, while in others the text is accompanied by a large number of portraits. For<em>Marturia Uneii Generatii<\/em>&nbsp;(A Generation\u2019s Testimony), 1929, an anthology of conversations with authors written by the Jewish writer, poet, and playwright Felix Aderca, Jancoproduced dozens of portraits ranging from faces, through torsos, to full-body drawings. From 1926-1928 he created some 70 illustrations for the two volumes of&nbsp;<em>Antologia Poetilor de Azi<\/em>&nbsp;(Anthology of Contemporary Poetry) edited by the Romanian poets Ion Pillat and Perpessicius. Jacques G. Costin\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Exercitii Pentru Mana Dreapta<\/em>&nbsp;(Exercises for the Right&nbsp;Hand) contains Janco\u2019s portrait of the author, as well as depictions of several other figures, including Archimedes and Don Quixote, all drawn in thin, delicate, angular, and flowing contour lines with almost no shading. For Ion Vinea\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Paradisul Suspinelor<\/em>&nbsp;(Paradise of Sighs), 1930, a prose anthology, he produced a portrait of the author and four linocuts. Janco\u2019s portraits of the author also appear in several other books, including N.D. Cocea\u2019s short novel&nbsp;<em>Vinul de Viata Lunga<\/em>&nbsp;(The Wine of Long Life) from 1931; the collection of essays&nbsp;<em>Oceanografie<\/em>&nbsp;by Mircea Eliade, from 1935; and Dinu Stegarescu\u2019s book on twentieth century art movements,&nbsp;<em>Introducere in Modernism<\/em>, which was published in Romania in 1947, when Janco was already in Palestine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">Janco\u2019s illustrations can therefore be divided into four major categories:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\" start=\"1\">\n<li>Political caricatures<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Abstract compositions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>&nbsp;Figurative compositions<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Portraits<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Political Caricatures<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">Illustrations in this category reflect Janco\u2019s protest against political events in Romania at the time. Without a doubt,&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>&nbsp;was making a very bold statement by printing on the cover of its January 1923 issue his depiction of a shackled figure being beaten by men in uniform. Janco\u2019s caricatures, rapid sketches drawn with an animated, tempestuous, and expressive line, also display black humor. They portray struggling figures (a giant battling dwarfs, a writer buckling under a pile of books) ; violent scenes (a man stabbed, a woman kicking a man) ; desperate individuals (a figure raising its hands or falling backwards) ; and scenes of death.[11]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Abstract Compositions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">In late 1916 and early 1917, Janco began to adopt abstract means of expression.[12] Many of the illustrations that appeared in periodicals in the 1920s and 1930s show a clear link to the abstract oils he produced in those years. He created geometric compositions with arrows, triangles, circles, and angular lines bursting out from the center like explosive energy. The illustrations are characterized by a rhythmic conjunction of various materials in black and white, with the shadowy memory of an urban landscape hovering over the abstract composition.[13]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Figurative compositions<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">Sasa Pana\u2019s book<em>&nbsp;Cuvantul Talisman<\/em>&nbsp;(The Word Talisman) from 1933, contains an illustration of Robinson Crusoe alongside a poem about solitude.[14] The woodcuts in Ion Vinea\u2019s&nbsp;<em>Paradisul Suspinelor<\/em>&nbsp;(Paradise of Sighs) from 1931, illustrate scenes in the narrative by means of geometric compositions. The first page of&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>&nbsp;no. 34, from March 1923, shows a woodcut depicting a dog sniffing another dog\u2019s rear[15], with an urban landscape in the background incorporated into the face of a monster. The articles on the same page are titled \u201cIn Memory of the Red Messiah\u201d (in honor of the 40<sup>th<\/sup>&nbsp;anniversary of the death of Karl Marx) and \u201cDictatorial Constitution\u201d (criticism of the regime\u2019s habit of bending the constitution to its needs). An illustration on the following page, alongside a text dealing with the literary values of prominent authors, depicts another cityscape with geometric elements reminiscent of Janco\u2019s abstract compositions. A further article on that page, titled \u201cThe Road to Nirvana\u201d (a sharply ironic critique of an unnamed dignitary\u2019s decision to withdraw from public life and social responsibility of which he claimed to have grown weary), is accompanied by the drawing of an ass. And on the next page, beside a review of cultural events titled \u201cFor Contemporary People,\u201d is another woodcut bearing the caption \u201cModern Choreography\u201d and showing dancing forms that may or may not be human figures. Working in woodcuts, Janco was able to adopt an architectural perspective of the scene, in contrast to the free flowing hand he used in his drawings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Portraits<\/strong>[16]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">The many portraits Janco created for books and periodicals, both woodcuts and pen and ink drawings, represent a fascinating panorama of members of the Romanian cultural and avant garde world in the 1920s and 1930s. The cover of<em>Contimporanul<\/em>, no. 33, March, 1923, bears a woodcut showing the scowling face of the pianist Clara Haskil. The aggressive angular lines carved into the wood to depict the contours of the face construct an abstract portrayal of the expression, hair, eyes, nose, and mouth.[17] The portrait of Ion Vinea at the front of&nbsp;<em>Paradisul Suspinelor<\/em>&nbsp;is also a woodcut, but here the background is carved into the block so that the figure is in relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">At times, the pen Janco used for his pen and ink drawings produced an effect similar to the carving knife in his woodcuts. The portrait of Urmuz in Aderca\u2019s compilation is a prime example, with sharp black and white areas and ink-filled lines. Describing his technique in&nbsp;<em>Contimporanul<\/em>, Janco stated: \u201cToday in painting, the line highlights the drawing, creates the arabesque, grounds the composition, situates the form. Often it provokes the color into an unplanned adventure, tempers the sensitivity, and even more than that, emphasizes the abstract nature of the composition in particular\u201d (<em>Contimporanul<\/em>, no. 102, 1932, p. 5).&nbsp;Janco concentrated primarily on the head and personal hallmarks of his subject, seeking to accentuate the character of the individual. He was not in the habit of flattering people, and indeed, tended to be harsh in his portrayals of them. In the words of the Romanian poet Camil Baltazar, \u201cJanco was gifted with X-rays that penetrated into the person he was drawing; he captured the psychological essence of the subject\u201d.[18]<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Raya Zommer-Tal<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Exhibition Curator<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">[1] Ion Pop, \u201cMoments in the Romanian Literary Avant-Garde,\u201d in:&nbsp;<em>Bucharest&nbsp;in the 1920s-1940s: Between Avant-Garde and Modernism<\/em>, Romania, 1994, p. 22.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\" dir=\"ltr\">[2] The journal, still published in Romania, recently celebrated its one hundredth anniversary.
