Description
The work "Flores - 1940" by Vladimir Tatlin, an eminently recognized figure in the field of Russian constructivism, remarked more than its most iconic architectural and sculptural creations. Tatlin, known world world And the color.
"Flores - 1940" is a composition that, at first glance, is distinguished by its apparent simplicity and the thematic approach: a vase containing a bouquet of flowers. However, when we enter the work, we appreciate the meticulous attention that Tatlin pays to every detail. The flowers, embodied with an almost photographic sharpness, seem to levitate inside the Floreroy project their vitality towards the observer. The brushstrokes, carefully applied, build a texture that adds a tactile dimension to the work, evoking the fragrance and softness of the petals.
The color, primary element in the painting, is manifested with a wealth and depth that capture the essence of each flower. The warm tones of oranges and yellow are contrasted with the green of the leaves and the blue of the background, generating a chromatic balance that is appeased in sight. This color balance is not merely decorative; It reflects the natural harmony that Tatlin refers to this piece, in a visual script that contrasts its most radical constructivist contributions.
It should be noted that the palette used by Tatlin in this work differs significantly from the austerity and chromatic minimalism of its sculptures. In "Flores - 1940", the expansive use of color seems to indicate a search for Tatlin to explore new expressive territories, perhaps a meditation on nature and simplicity against the complexity of its architectural works.
There are no characters in this painting; The prominence is taken by the flowers and, implicitly, the same vase. Tatlin's best known works usually lead to an explicit ideological and political burden, however, in this piece, there are no evident indications of such symbolism. This can be interpreted as a moment of private introspection of the artist, an intimate record that distance itself from the monumentality and social commitment that characterized its usual production.
With regard to unknown findings of this painting, the piece stands out rather because of what it does not reveal. Far from the utopian discourses of constructivism, "Flores - 1940" seems a silent reflection on the ephemeral beauty of everyday life. With this work, Tatlin may invite us to reconsider the small details of daily life that often go unnoticed.
This painting It is framed in the historical context of a world at war, where the simplicity and memory of nature can serve as an emotional escape or a reminder of quieter times. In summary, "Flores - 1940" is a work that, although less known in the vast repertoire of Russian artist Vladimir Tatlin, offers us a different and complementary approach to his artistic mastery.
