Description
The Lissitzky, one of the most outstanding figures of suprematism and later of constructivism, transports us to a new dimensional and conceptual space with his work "Proun 5 A - 1919". This painting, which is part of the series of works called "Proun", aims to exploit new forms of space organization. The word "Proun", acronym for "project for the affirmation of the new", reflects the intention of the artist to break with the pictorial tradition and build a bridge between painting and architecture.
In "Proun 5 A", Lissitzky presents us with a geometric and abstract composition dominated by rectangular forms and angular lines. The use of white, black, gray and ocher tones creates a contrast that emphasizes the interrelation between forms. The author's interest for precision and mathematical rigor is evident, resulting in a arrangement that evokes a three -dimensional structure on a two -dimensional canvas. The geometric shapes, which seem to float in space, suggest a sense of movement and dynamism that is characteristic of constructivism.
The absence of human figures or traditional narrative elements allows the viewer to focus on the interaction between shapes and colors. The lines and plans intersect and overlap creating an illusionist depth that invites a reflection on the nature of reality and perception. This innovation in spatial perception is a distinctive feature of the work of El Lissitzky, who sought to challenge art conventions and propose a new visual logic.
In addition to its relevance within the context of abstract art, "Proun 5 A" is testimony of Lissitzky's commitment to the Russian avant -garde of the early twentieth century, in which art was considered a means for social transformation. The geometric abstraction that defines this work is not only an aesthetic exploration, but also an ideological and political statement, in line with the revolutionary spirit of the time.
The influence of the Lissitzky and its "Proun" series can be traced in various later artistic movements, including the optical and kinetic art of the middle of the twentieth century, as well as in the deconstructivist architecture. In "Proun 5 A", we see the clarity and purity of the artist, who through the radical simplification of the forms and the renunciation of the decorative elements, feels the foundations of a visual language that continues to resonate in contemporaneity.
"The Lissitzky and its" Proun 5 A - 1919 "are essential to understand the development of modern art, not only because of its technical and formal innovation, but also for their ability to expand the limits of perception and offer a new way of understanding The world through art.
