Naum GABO (1890-1977) Opus XX (1939) lithographie sur papier Dimensions : 29 x 23 cm Provenance : Éditions du Griffon, Neuchâtel Naum Gabo was one of the pioneering artists of his time. Born in Russia, he became key to developments in international modern art following the First World War. Renowned for his sculpture, Gabo was also known as a designer, painter and printmaker. As a theorist and writer, he taught and lectured consistently throughout his career. Living and working across Europe, Gabo integrated into the artistic scene of cities like Munich, Moscow, Berlin, Paris and London. He influenced a number of artistic movements of the twentieth century. In Moscow, he was involved in the early development of constructivism. In Berlin, he was central to debates around abstract art and collaborated with the Bauhaus school. In Britain he joined communities of modern artists in London and St Ives where his geometric abstraction found inspiration in natural forms. Finally, he settled in Connecticut in the United States after the Second World War. Gabo gained significant recognition in his late career through publications, lectures and public commissions. Gabo was at the root of new thoughts and philosophies that emerged in the art world across the twentieth century. He supported the international development of constructivism following his departure from Russia. His legacy has influenced several generations of practitioners across the world including artists and architects working with abstract and organic forms, kinetic and installation artists, and now those thinking about time-based media. Read on to find out about the foundations of his theory.
