gandesti la iuteala lui, la corpul lui scanteietor pe care-l vezi
plutind prin apa...Ei bine, chiar asta am incercat eu sa exprim.
Daca i-as fi facut aripioare, ochi si solzi i-as fi oprit miscarile si ti
l-as fi infatisat printr-o mostra sau o forma a realitatii. Eu vreau
doar sclipirea spiritului sau."

intr-o buna dimineata, cand s-ar
duce la joaca in gradina, in locul

Gerrit Thomas Rietveld: furniture maker, designer and
architect. He was born on 24 June 1888 and died on
26 June 1964. Despite his several dozens pieces of
furniture, buildings and other designs, Rietveld is
usually associated with one chair from 1918 and one
house from 1924; his famous Red-Blue chair and the
Rietveld-Schrder house.

Schrder House,
Gerrit Rietveld,1924
Rietveld Schrder House in Utrecht, NL,
remains a fascinating experience. It was
designed by Gerrit Rietveld for Truus
Schrder in 1924. As Rietvelds client she
had a great influence on the result. This
house is the only building ever realized on the
basis of the architectural principles of De Stijl.
Typical features are the use of the Stijl
colours red, blue and yellow, in combination
with white, grey and black, the relation
between interior and exterior and the unity
between the free-standing pieces of furniture
and the fitted parts of the interior. According
to Rietveld and Schrder one had to have an
active attitude to life.
The Schrder House is undoubtedly the building emblem of De Stijl movement and
one of the most famous buildings the avant-garde architectural interwar. Designed by
Gerrit Thomas Rietveld is considered an icon of the modern movement. In it are
manifest the concept of total art it promoted the group.

Exhibition in Arnhems Sonsbeek
Park.
After the Rietveld Schrder House was built Rietveld designed a
row of 4 mansions on the Erasmuslaan 5-11 in Utrecht, NL, in
1931. This block is on the far side of the ring road. The contrast is
enormous: with their large quantities of glass, white stucco and
steel shutters, these houses complied totally with the aesthetic
ideal of the Nieuwe Bouwen movement, the Dutch functionalist
architecture of the 1930s

 Russian Constructivism was a movement that was
active from 1913 to the 1940s. It was a movement created
by the Russian avant-garde, but quickly spread to the
rest of the continent.
Constructivist art is committed to complete
abstraction with a devotion to modernity, where
themes are often geometric, experimental and
rarely emotional.
Objective forms carrying universal meaning were far
more suitable to the movement than subjective or
individualistic forms. Constructivist themes are also
quite minimal, where the artwork is broken down to its
most basic elements
Model of Tatlins Tower -The Monument to the
Third International After the 1917 Revolution,
Tatlin worked for the new Soviet Education
Commissariate which used artists and art to
educate the public. During this period, he
developed an officially authorized art form
which utilized 'real materials in real space'.

His 1919 project for a Monument of the Third

Communist International marked his first
foray into architecture and became a
symbol for Russian avant-garde
architecture and International Modernism.

The Monument to the Third International was

a grand monumental building envisioned by
the Russian artist and architect Vladimir
Tatlin, but never built.

El Lissitzky (1890-1941) was
one of the pioneers of the
modernist movement in Russian
art which flourished in the
period 1915-1925. He was one
of the most graphically radical
of his era, and yet only a few
years earlier he was painting
rather conventional (though
very mature and stylised)
landscape paintings in the
tradition of Russian realism.

Tatlin began his art career as an icon painter in
Moscow, and attended the Moscow School of
Painting, Sculpture and Architecture. He was also a
professional musician-bandurist, and performed as
such at the Paris World Fair in 1906.

Tatlin achieved fame as the architect who

designed the huge Monument to the Third
International, also known as Tatlin's Tower.
Planned in 1920, the monument, was to be a tall
tower in iron, glass and steel which would have
dwarfed the Eiffel Tower in Paris (the Monument to
the Third International was a third taller at 1,300 feet
high). Inside the iron-and-steel structure of twin
spirals, the design envisaged three building blocks,
covered with glass windows, which would rotate at
different speeds (the first one, a cube, once a year;
the second one, a pyramid, once a month; the third
one, a cylinder, once a day). High prices prevented
Tatlin from executing the plan, and no building such
as this was erected in his day.

Tatlin was also regarded as a progenitor of Russian

post-Revolutionary Constructivist art.
Vladimir Tatlin - Vanzatorul de pesti

Tatlin's most famous piece remains his
"Monument to the Third International"
(1919-20, Moscow), a 22-ft-high (6.7-
m) iron frame on which rested a
revolving cylinder, cube, and cone, all
made of glass which was originally
designed for massive scale. After the
1917 Revolution, Tatlin (considered
the father of Russian Constructivism)
worked for the new Soviet Education
Commissariate which used artists and
art to educate the public.
Melnikov rejected "method" in design, instead focussing on "intuition" as the
important factor in expressing the social and symbolic meaning of a building. He
attempted to reach an acceptable architectural solution that could be considered a
blending of both Classicism and "Leftist modernism". His projects from the early
1930s responded to official demands for explicit and symbolic historicism.
