Soviet Constructivism, in stark construct to the neighbouring German Expressionism across Europe, revels in the state of being art. There is no attempt made by Soviet art to convince the observer that it is a real landscape, or a real feeling embodied – rather, it tells you upon your first glance that what you are viewing is artwork or photography.

Early soviet constructivism

This painting, Space-Force Construction, 1921 by Lyubov Popova is an excellent example of the SOVIET CONSTRUCTIVISM movement Te themes of geometry and shape comming together to create a piece emblematic of the workers of Russia coming together to create one cohesive society.

Poster for the Russian state airline Dobrolet, Alexander Rodchenko, 1923.

This Soviet constructivist poster from 1923 by Dobrolet, Alexander Rodchenko is a great example of Soviet constructivist art as it uses a lot of the colour red which is a common theme as it is representative of the red party in Russian politics, the poster also has large bold words and phrases which typically where propaganda. It also uses photo montage of the plane incorporated as the poster was made to promote air travel
