LABORATORY OF EXPERIMENTS - The artists of the 1910s - 1920s were fascinated by developments in science and engineering, with non-figurative art providing unlimited opportunities to explore the fundamental properties of matter in terms of colour, line, shape and movement. Research in the fields of time and space, advances in the use of electricity, and the invention of powered flight, all became creative inspiration for these artists. In 1921, a group of young avant-garde ‘Projectionist’ artists, including Sergey Luchishkin, Kliment Redko, Alexander Tyshler and Mikhail Plaksin, came onto the stage. One of the key elements of the Projectionist method was science, with the laws of physics and chemistry lying at the root of their art. Constructivist artists Vladimir and Georgy Stenberg also created works that relied heavily on scientific principles. Together with other members of the OBMOKhU (Society of Young Russian Artists), they experimented with spatial structures in compositions that had potential for future practical use. - In 1962, artists in Moscow who were working in geometric and kinetic art, formed a group, which was later called ‘Movement’. Vladimir Akulinin and Vyacheslav Koleichuk were members of this group. Investigating structural forms for their kinetic inventions, they built on the work of the Constructivists, in whose laboratory experiments they saw the foundations of many architectural and engineering discoveries of the mid-20th century. - ladimir Stenberg (1899–1982) Colour Construction No.13, 1918 Mixed media on canvas 45 x 52.5 cm Donated by Nadezhda Stenberg, widow of the artist, in 1984 State Tretyakov Gallery - #RussianAG firestation.org.qa —— Rosneft is the General Sponsor of this exhibition. أقلام الألوان المائية والتي لن تجد مثيل لها في أي مكان أخر والمتوفرة فقط في متجر #كاس_آرت_قطر في مطافئ الدوحة • Watercolour in pen form.
