The seventh volume of the series dedicated to the life and work of Ilya Zdanevich - Iliazd presents the first English translation of the "Albanian" issue of Bloodless Murder magazine, published in Petrograd in 1916. Almost completely unknown to avant-garde scholars and curators, the Bloodless Murder group of 1915-16 included artists such as Vera Ermolaeva, Olga Leshkova, Nikolay Lapshin, and Mikhail Le Dentu. Their "anarchist" publications and actions were intended to "insult and offend" liberal values. Iliazd (Ilya Zdanevich, 1894-1975) was a Russian poet, designer, typographer, theoretician, art critic, and publisher, close to the avant-garde circles and one of the promoters of Futurism in Russia, author of a poetic work, drama written in zaum abstract poetic trans-sense or "transrational" language, and novels.
