Constructivism manifesto















The Constructivism movement started in 1915 and ended in late 1930s, and was the last and most influential modern art movement to flourish in Russia in the 20th century. It evolved just as the Bolsheviks came to power in October Revolution, and initially it acted as a lightning rod for the hopes and ideas of many of the most advanced Russian artist who supported the revolution's goals. As a movement it is also based on some ideas from Cubism, Suprematism and Futurism, but at its heart was an entirely new approach to making objects, one which sought to abolish the traditional artistic concern with composition, and replace it with construction. Constructivism called for a new careful technical analysis of modern materials, and it was hoped that this investigation would eventually yield ideas that could be put to use in mass production, serving the ends of a modern, Communist society. This movement was making his way to Europe and one of the most powerful, with some background from the russian criteria was International Constructivism which flourished in Germany in the 1920s, and whose legacy endured into the 1950s.
