Description
Proun 23, No. 6 by El Lissitzky is an abstract composition featuring geometric shapes in muted colours, reflecting the artist's exploration of space and form within the Constructivist movement.
El Lissitzky, born Lazar Markovich Lissitzky, was a Russian artist, designer, photographer, typographer, polemicist, and architect. He was an important figure in the Russian avant-garde, helping develop Suprematism with his mentor, Kazimir Malevich, before designing his own Proun series. Lissitzky's work greatly influenced the Bauhaus and Constructivist movements, and he experimented with production techniques and stylistic devices that would dominate 20th-century graphic design. Proun, an acronym for "Project for the Affirmation of the New," was Lissitzky's personal exploration of abstract art. These works, existing between painting and architecture, combined geometric forms with spatial concepts. Proun 23, No. 6 features a composition of geometric shapes in muted colours. A light beige background is overlaid with red-brown curved shapes at the top and bottom, creating a sense of depth. A grey rectangular prism floats near the top, while a black square with a shadow and a thin grey rectangle intersect in the centre. A slender grey blade-like shape stands vertically to the right, adding a dynamic element to the composition. The overall effect is one of balance and tension, characteristic of Lissitzky's exploration of space and form.

Artist Biography
El Lissitzky
He was born Lazar Markovich Lissitzky in 1890. After returning to Russia, he worked alongside Malevich at the UNOVIS art school in Vitebsk, where Suprematism and the revolution were supposed to be the same thing. He became one of the most influential graphic designers of the twentieth century, his poster designs, book layouts, and exhibition installations connecting Russian avant-garde art to the Bauhaus and De Stijl in western Europe.
He contracted pulmonary tuberculosis and continued working as a book artist and photomonteur because he could do it lying down. His sister Jenta committed suicide in Vitebsk in 1925 while he was hospitalised in Switzerland. He married Sophie Kuppers, a German woman whose family disapproved of the match; she had to leave her sons behind to move to Moscow. He died in Moscow in 1941, the year Germany invaded Russia.
