Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses the concept of faktura in the early stages of Russian Cubo-Futurism by focusing on the representation of faktura in painting and sculpture as defined by Voldemar Matvey (Vladimir Markov) and Nikolai Burlyuk in 1912-1913, and in poetry as envisaged by Alexey Kruchenykh and Velimir Khlebnikov. Based on Kruchenykh’s and Khlebnikov’s manifesto Word as Such (1913), the paper shows how their declarative insistence on facture in poetry transforms into creativity in Kruchenykh’s collection of poetry Vzorval’ (Explodity).
