1929: Distance and Return

Open Arts Press, LLC; compiled by Open Arts Forum

Historical Arts Annuals — 1929: Distance and Return is a contemporary retrospective published by Open Arts Press, LLC and compiled by Open Arts Forum, prepared in 2026. The historical year dates the selected works and their verified appearances, not an original OAF issue. This 88-page illustrated edition includes six complete poems by A. R. D. Fairburn and Katherine Mansfield, complete essays by Virginia Woolf and Carl Van Doren, Dorothy Parker’s complete Big Blonde, printed art by Mabel Pugh and Eva Herrmann, and photography by Andreas Feininger, Florence Henri and Hans Finsler. An extended introduction, eleven biographies, three documented contributor portraits and linked contents connect the works with their sources. Public-domain and openly licensed sources are documented item by item on United States reuse bases; this is not worldwide clearance or a legal opinion.
