Publisher's Synopsis
For the first time, the issue of gender in the Constructivist movement is explored in-depth, with the artists' extensive network of colleagues and collaborators considered in the discussion. Extensively illustrated with striking examples of the artists' work, including previously unpublished works, Rodchenko and Popova is a comprehensive account of their creative development, from their movement through different mediums to their passionate rejection of art for art's sake.” Published to accompany a major exhibition at Tate Modern, this is an indispensable guide to a fascinating period in art history.
