Dmitry Avaliani
Illustration — Dmitry Avaliani Dmitry Avaliani (დიმიტრი ევგენის-ძე ავალიანი; Дми́трий Евге́ньевич Авалиа́ни; 6 August 1938 – 19 December 2003) was a Russian poet and palindromist, who made "important" contributions to Russian visual poetry. He invented and perfected the Russian ambigram, called listoverten ' (could be loosely translated as rotate-page). This is a short text (usually just a few words) written so that after rotating 90° or 180° it is legible as a different text, or sometimes the same.
