His best-known works are his small-scale sculptures—notable as among the first to apply Cubism to three-dimensional form—in which he utilized alternating faceted planes and organic curves to depict an inventive interpretation of the human figure. Having achieved considerable success throughout his life, Archipenko was included in the notorious 1913 Armory Show in New York, participated in the 12th Venice Biennale, and founded art schools in both Paris and Berlin. Today, his works can be found in the collections of dozens of important institutions, such as the Tel Aviv Museum of Art in Israel, the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, and the Tate Modern in London. Archipenko is also remembered for his massive stature of King Solomon, permanently installed on the University of Pennsylvania campus. Born on May 30, 1887 in Kiev, Ukraine, Archipenko died on February 25, 1964 in New York, NY.
