Proun 3A
1922
El Lissitzky called his wild, floating geometric worlds 'Prouns,' a catchy acronym for 'Project for the Affirmation of the New.' Created in 1922, this lithograph looks like a blueprint for a dream city where gravity has completely given up. You can see bold black shapes, thin architectural lines, and a giant cross-like beam all tumbling through a speckled, cosmic space. It's a perfect example of how Russian avant-garde artists wanted to break free from traditional canvas painting and design a completely new, futuristic reality.
