Despite a growing interest in the work of the Russian avant-garde, there is still relatively little known about the artists of the late Russian Empire and the early Soviet Union. This course addresses the broad scope and multidisciplinary practice of Russian modernism, from the shocking primitivism of The Rite of Spring to the cold pragmatism of constructivism.

Participants will reimagine how ordinary materials can be used to create imaginative sculptures. Inspired by sculptures in the NEU’s collection, participants will learn core principles of three-dimensional design through experimenting with found objects. Participants will create sculptural projects using personal materials from home and provided studio supplies: a low-relief wall piece, a box sculpture, a free-standing sculpture. The culminating event will take place on November 18 from 12pm–2pm. All experience levels are welcome.
