Alexander Rodchenko Appreciation

Oh definitely yes. I've always liked his posters. Very clever man.
 
yes, and a yes, actually include All of the Constructivists, particularly my favorite . . . . .. Lazlo Maholy- nagy or just . . . .Maholy. He is buried at Graceland Cememetary, in Chicago, i think.
 
i might be wrong, but i think moholy nagy was a bauhaus photographer, not a russian constructavist ?
that's ok he's one of my heros too, ( and man ray ) and i really couldn't decide
which of the 3 to put up all kind of cut from the same fabric, same mind blowing work
and maholy nagy's graphic design/poster work was equally as amazing...

I'm sure many here are already aware of the silent film from 1929 The Man with the Movie Camera by Dziga Vertical. I think I'm right in saying it owed much to Russian constructivism.

It's a great watch. This version is with Nyman music. The Cinematic Orchestra have put original music too it also — that's really a great way to watch it (you can find that on DVD).


Sorry if this is drifting a bit off the specific topic.
