Origins & History
Constructivism emerged in Russia around 1913, reaching its peak after the 1917 Revolution. Artists like El Lissitzky, Alexander Rodchenko, and Varvara Stepanova created art that served revolutionary social purposes.
The movement emphasized geometric forms, bold colors (especially red and black), photomontage, and dynamic diagonal compositions. Constructivist posters became iconic examples of graphic design serving propaganda.
Constructivist aesthetics continue to influence political design, music album covers, and bold brand identities. Its dynamic energy and geometric strength translate powerfully to digital media and motion graphics.
