Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Naum Gabo KBE, born Naum Neemia Pevsner (5 August 1890 - 23 August 1977) was a prominent Russian sculptor in the Constructivism movement and a pioneer of Kinetic Art. After the outbreak of war, Gabo moved first to Copenhagen then Oslo with his older brother Alexei, making his first constructions under the name Naum Gabo in 1915. These earliest constructions originally in cardboard or wood were figurative such as the Head No.2 in the Tate collection. He moved back to Russia in 1917, to become involved in politics and art, spending five years in Moscow with his brother Antoine. Gabo contributed to the Agit-prop open air exhibitions and taught at ''VKhUTEMAS'' the Higher Art and Technical Workshop, with Tatlin, Kandinsky and Rodchenko. During this period the reliefs and construction became more geometric and Gabo began to experiment with kinetic sculpture though the majority of the work was lost or destroyed.
