Deconstructing Tatlin
The prominent avant-garde artist Volodymyr Tatlin is often described as the founder of the Constructivist movement. What happens when we deconstruct some of his projects and observe the vectors of his work? Not all of them have an ending, and some go in reverse. His biography is a meandering and wandering set of lines. Humans are not one-dimensional, so why should Tatlin or his work be seen as such? Join us at The Ukrainian Museum for a talk and visual presentation led by the Director of the Herb Lubalin Study Center of Design and Typography at The Cooper Union, Alexander Tochilovsky, to explore some of these vectors of Tatlin’s existence and add more dimension to the man behind the pioneering artist.
