Description
He painting "Proun 4 B - 1920" of El Lissitzky is an emblematic work of the Supreme Movement, of which the artist was one of the main exponents. This composition, inscribed in the series called "Proun", represents a forceful synthesis of the aesthetic and philosophical ideas that marked the Russian avant-garde of the early twentieth century.
When observing "Proun 4 B" one is immediately captured by its masterful use of fundamental geometric forms, which are ordered on the canvas without an apparent correlation with the natural world, but loaded with a compositional rigor. Straight lines, circles, rectangles and arches are arranged on a white background, creating a three -dimensional assembly that seems to float in an indeterminate space. This provision of forms is not accidental; Lissitzky seeks to propose a new way of perceiving the pictorial space, breaking with the traditional notions of perspective and representation.
The use of color in "Proun 4 B" is deliberate and calculated. The predominant tones are black, gray and red, which contrast vividly with white background, generating a sense of dynamism and spatial tension. The red, frequently associated with the revolution and change, becomes a color of emphasis that guides the look through the composition, while the neutrality of white and gray provide a equilibrium counterpoint.
In this painting there are no characters in a figurative sense; The true protagonists are the forms and colors, and the dynamic relationships that establish each other. This absence of human or naturalistic representation is a fundamental aspect of suprematism, which seeks to transcend images of the tangible world to achieve pure and universal pictorial language.
The Lissitzky, a disciple of Kazimir Malévich and his doctrine of suprematism, takes this current one step further with his PROUNS, which he himself defined as projects for the affirmation of the new art. These works are considered both architectural and pictorial, and are characterized by exploring the intersection between art and architecture. The PROUN series represents a transitive space, a meeting point between the always changing world of art and the precise and utilitarian discipline of architecture.
It is relevant to emphasize that the Lissitzky was not only a painter, but also a graphic designer, typographer, architect and photographer, roles that significantly influenced their artistic production. His integral vision of art as an interdisciplinary practice is reflected in the multidimensionality of works such as "Proun 4 B".
"Proun 4 B" can be interpreted as a model of utopian ideas, where geometric shapes try to project a new order, a architectural cosmos loaded with optimism for a future of progress and revolution. This work thus enrolls in the incessant search for the Lissitzky for a total art, an art that, rather than imitating reality, reconfigura.
In conclusion, "Proun 4 B - 1920" of El Lissitzky is not only a pictorial work, but a visual manifesto of the Russian avant -garde. Through the rigorous disposition of its geometric elements and its bold color use, this painting invites us to reimagine the possible harmonies and contradictions of space, movement and shape, and demonstrates the perpetual relief of art in the construction of new realities .
