A selection of poems by Ilya Zdanevich, including those never previously published, published in the “Special Fund” section of the ABG magazine No. 8, 2004 (Tbilisi). The culturally centric twentieth century, having exhibited, commented on and canonized everything that could be designated worthy art attention, still left behind some white spots. This also includes the legendary figure of the avant-garde of the last century, Ilya Zdanevich. The basis of his still-unrecognized nature in his homeland is probably his professional proteism, the change of creative masks and the inaccessibility of the literary heritage, specific publishing practices and even, perhaps, methods of replication. In this case, we offer texts by Ilya Zdanevich from examples of his earliest poetic experiments, published for the first time, to samples of his latest poetic statements.
