= Rowell/ Wye 450; Tupitsyn, Russian Dada p.190. "Dog's Box", an extremely rare publication by the Nothingists. "The Nothingists and the OBERIU group were two branches of Russian Dadaism. OBERIU sat on two or even three chairs: Dadaism, surrealism, and nonsense (absurdism). The Nothingists (nichevoki) were something else altogether. "Nothingists are the Dada of the West", they proclaimed, putting forth such slogans as "We spit on humanity" and "Everything takes its beginning from Nothing"". (Tupitsyn). From the introduction (in Russian): "In the choice of title we were inspired by the dadaists. They themselves complain that "Dada doesn't mean anything"! We are almost on the same path with them. They make a right turn - we turn to the left. Or the other way around. This guided us in our choice. So, we just liked the combination of those two words - hence "Dog's Box" (...)".
