Product Description

One of the most versatile Constructivist and Productivist artists to emerge after the Russian Revolution, Alexander Rodchenko worked as a painter, graphic designer, photographer, photomontageist, architectural designer, and sculptor. He was alternately influenced by Suprematism, Productivism, Dada, Constructivism, Abstraction, and Abstract Expressionism--working in different modes throughout his artistic life. This monograph focuses on Rodchenko's sculptures, which can be loosely divided into three groups, beginning with abstract works dating from 1918; mobiles; and square timber works from circa 1920. Works are presented through vintage photographs, detailed descriptions, and reconstructions.

Edited by Galerie Gmurzynska.
Essays by Selim O. Khan-Magomedow, Alexander Lawrentjew and Warwara Stepanowa.
