| One of the most
versatile Constructivist
and Productivist artists
to emerge after the Russian Revolution, worked as a
painter and graphic designer before turning to photomontage
and photography. |

"Photography has all the rights, and all the
merits, necessary for us to turn towards it as the art of our
time". "
Contradictions of perspective. Contrasts of light. Contrasts
of form. Points of view impossible to
achieve in drawing and painting. Foreshortenings with a strong
distortion of the objects, with a crude handling of matter.
Moments altogether new, never seen before... compositions whose
boldness outstrips the imagination of painters... Then the creation
of those instants which do not exist, contrived by means of
photomontage... |
...The negative
transmits altogether new stimuli to the sentient mind and
eye."
Find Rodchenko at Masters
Of Photography. |
