Rodchenko&Popova

This post is inspired by the great exhibition of the russian Constructivism artists Rodchenko&Popova that I saw some days ago in the Reina Sofia Museum.


Apart from her paintings Popova also made textile designs, which I just admire!! I'd make fabrics like these by my own if I could...








5x5=25 was an abstract art exhibition of 5 constructivism artists (Rodchenko&Popova were two of them) that was held in september 1921 and should manifest the "end of art". The 25 catalogues for it have been hand-drawn by the artists.


An example for the influence on todays design:
