At the Petrol Station - Vintage Silver Salt Photograph by A. Rodcenko
Located in Roma, IT
At the petrol station is an original vintage silver salts photograph, made by the great Russian Constructivist artist Aleksandr Michajlovic Rodčenko (Saint Petersburg, 1891 - Moscow, 1956) in 1935 ca.
Printed later, presumably between the 1940s and the 1950s.
In very good conditions, it is rare and precious. A scene of ordinary life is portrayed in an unusual point of view. The oblique cuts, the use of diagonal as the dynamics of this image, the close position of the machine are constants of Rodčenko'style and something of absolutely revolutionary and innovative at that time in the field of photography!
Provenance:
Museum of Modern Art, Oxford, Great Britain; Forum Auction, London; Private Collection.
Bibliography:
Alexander Rodchenko. Catalog of the retrospective exhibition published from the Museum of Modern Art, Oxford, 1979.
Aleksandr Michajlovič Rodčenko (St. Petersburg, 1891 - Moscow, 1956)
Aleksandr Michajlovič Rodčenko was a Russian painter, photographer and graphic designer, a leading figure of the Russian avant-gardes who collaborated in the establishment of the Constructivist movement.
In 1924 Rodcenko definitively abandoned painting as the main artistic medium to embrace photography...
