Paperback. Condition: Very Good. Alexander Rodchenko (1891-1956) and Lyubov Popova (1889-1924) were involved in the Russian avant-garde during its most exciting period following the Russian Revolution, as they and other artists took part in the attempt to create a new world. As leading lights in the Constructivist movement they were responsible for an astonishing array of iconic works. This groundbreaking book, the first to give the female and male artist equal status, will throw new light on their achievements and the extent of their influence, still felt today. The book will be in four main sections, each examining the artists' production during a particular time period. Section 1 spans the years from the Revolution in 1917 to 1921, when both artists believed that abstract art had the potential to transform everyday life. Popova was perhaps the leading painter of the Constructivist movement; Rodchenko moved into the field of three-dimensional constructions, under the influence of his friend Tatlin. Section 2 will focus on the legendary 5x5=25 exhibitions and will include works by other participating artists. The third section will cover 1921 to 1924, the year Popova's life was tragically cut short by scarlet fever. This was the period when both artists came to believe that art for art's sake was parasitical and plunged into the practical realms of artistic production. Illustrations of their projects will demonstrate the extent of their influence on twentieth-century graphic design, fashion, media, theatre and cinema. Section 4 follows Rodchenko's move into photography, the medium for which he is perhaps best remembered, and explores his involvement with film. An examination of the lives and work of these two artists along with their extensive network of colleagues and collaborators provides a key to the whole Constructivist project. For the first time the issue of gender is explored; is there a difference between the approach of a female Constructivist and a male one? The authors' surprising conclusions and the wealth of new scholarship and previously unpublished works it includes make this book indispensable to all those wishing to learn more about the art of this fascinating period. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

Hardback. Condition: New. A new title in the Design series and an excellent introduction to the life and work of this versatile Russian artist.Alexander Mikhailovich Rodchenko (1891-1953) was a central figure in the Russian Constructivist art movement; a radical activist, a pioneer of photomontage, a theorist, and a teacher. He was an active force in the organization of the first museums of modern art that arose in Russia in the first years after the Russian Revolution of 1917. Attending art school in 1914 in Kazan was to be a defining influence: that year Russian Futurists performed in the town, and Rodchenko saw their leading figures in action. It transformed his vision and he was still working with Futurist artists and their ideas twenty-five years later. And it was at art school where Rodchenko first met the artist Varvara Stepanova, with whom he collaborated extensively, and who would become his life-long partner. Central in the re-examination of art and its place in society after the Revolution, and in the search for a new culture without the class implications of the past, Rodchenko's radical approach proposed a new understanding of a constructed, rather than a tastefully composed, culture. This concise, comprehensive and informative work focuses largely on Rodchenko's graphic work in the form of book jackets, posters and advertising.The Design series is the winner of the Brand/Series Identity Category at the British Book Design and Production Awards 2009, judges said: "A series of books about design, they had to be good and these are. The branding is consistent, there is a good use of typography and the covers are superb."
