Klaxon Journal

Released in May 1922

o Takes as issue the disconnectedness of the Semana, which was neither a triumph or a failure
o Vague terminology, “the modern”, a focus on internationalism rather than the local, a focus on modernity and technology
o Covers bear a resemblance to Russian Constructivism and Dada, or Mexico’s Estridentismo
o No cohesive style, more eclecticism
