"Sichas Chulin" (also spelled "Sichos Chulin" or "Sikhas Chulin") is a notable Yiddish-language book by Eliezer Markowich Lissitzky, better known as El Lissitzky, a Russian artist, designer, photographer, typographer, and architect. The book, whose title translates to "Profane Conversations," was published in 1919 and is one of the key works in Lissitzky's early career, showcasing his transition from traditional Jewish cultural themes to the avant-garde.

El Lissitzky, born Lazar Markovich Lissitzky in 1890, was a significant figure in the Russian avant-garde movement, contributing to the development of Suprematism alongside Kazimir Malevich, and later playing a crucial role in the Constructivist movement. Although he is primarily known for his architectural designs, graphic works, and exhibition designs, "Sichas Chulin" represents an important part of his literary and artistic output, reflecting his engagement with Jewish culture and identity.

"Sichas Chulin" is a collection of folk tales, sayings, and anecdotes, drawn from Jewish tradition and life. The work is not only significant for its content but also for its innovative typography and layout, which would become hallmarks of Lissitzky's later work in graphic design and book art. In this book, Lissitzky experiments with the visual and textual presentation, integrating Jewish motifs with modernist design principles. The fusion of these elements in "Sichas Chulin" prefigures the artist's subsequent contributions to the avant-garde, where he sought to synthesize art with politics and culture.

The publication of "Sichas Chulin" came at a time of significant change in Russia, following the Bolshevik Revolution of 1917. Lissitzky's work from this period reflects the tumultuous social and political environment, as well as the cultural renaissance among Jews in Eastern Europe, known as the Haskalah or Jewish Enlightenment. "Sichas Chulin" is thus an embodiment of the crossroads at which Jewish culture stood in the early 20th century, poised between tradition and modernity.

Today, "Sichas Chulin" is recognized not only as a literary work but also as an artifact of early modernist book design. It is studied for its aesthetic and cultural contributions to both Jewish literature and the broader avant-garde movement. Copies of the book are held in various collections and libraries around the world, and it continues to be a subject of scholarly interest in the fields of art history, Jewish studies, and modernism.
