Aleksandr Rodchenko

Aleksandr Rodchenko was a pioneering Russian artist and designer active in the early 20th century, known for his innovative contributions to photography, painting, and graphic design. A key figure in the Russian Constructivist movement, he sought to break traditional art forms, emphasizing utilitarianism and the role of art in society. His bold use of angles and perspectives in photography, along with his experimental techniques, influenced modern visual culture. Rodchenko also designed posters and other public artworks that reflected his revolutionary ideals, advocating for art as a means of social change and promoting the values of the Soviet state.
