Summary/Abstract: The publication is devoted to the role played by the means of technical reproduction and the image transmission processes in promoting avant-garde concepts of art in the early decades of the twentieth century. Referring to Walter Benjamin’s thesis from the 1930s that photography and the availability of reproduction changed the modern concept of art by offering new artistic tools, the author seeks to explore how the use of reproduction influenced the new ways of art presentation and the development of an international network of artistic exchange.
