Description
A geometric abstract composition by El Lissitzky, 'Proun 99' showcases the artist's exploration of spatial relationships and Constructivist principles through a dynamic arrangement of shapes and lines.
El Lissitzky (1890-1941) 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 his subsequent work as a proponent of Constructivism. He experimented with production techniques and stylistic devices that would dominate 20th-century graphic design. 'Proun 99' exemplifies Lissitzky's Proun compositions, which explored the possibilities of abstract geometric forms in space. The work features a composition of geometric shapes, including a cube, rectangles, circles, and linear elements, arranged in a dynamic and non-objective manner. The colour palette is restrained, dominated by shades of grey, black, and white, with subtle accents of red. The composition suggests a three-dimensional space, with forms appearing to float and intersect, creating a sense of depth and movement. The linear elements add a sense of dynamism and tension to the composition.

Artist Biography
El Lissitzky
Lissitzky was rejected from the St Petersburg Art Academy in 1909 because of a quota limiting Jewish students. He went to Darmstadt, Germany, to study architecture instead. The detour shaped everything: his Prouns (Project for the Affirmation of the New), begun around 1919, sit between painting and architecture, abstract compositions that suggest three-dimensional space without depicting it.
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.
