> DESCRIPTION

The exhibition, which features paintings, sculptures, drawings and collages from a German private collection, highlights the important contribution East European Constructivism made to modern art, especially in the early decades of the 20th century.  Particularly Russia gave the avant-garde its impulses, which spread over to Western Europe. This exhibition brings together a broad spectrum of important works by Wassily Kandinsky, Kasimir Malevich, Alexander Rodchenko, Vladimir Tatlin, Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, Otto Freundlich and other artists who were all involved in the complex process of the avant-garde movement. The result is an art that not only created a new formally clear and geometrically reduced visual language, but also related to the development of society and influenced everyday culture.
