I went to the Hayward Gallery on Saturday and saw the Alexander Rodchenko exhibition. He was a fascinating chap who produced work in The Soviet Union at the beginning of the 20th Century. The exhibition concentrated on his photomontage and photographs. As a rule I preferred his photos but it was great to see the graphics up close and personal because of the huge influence he's had on contemporary design.
Because of the communist regime at the time he was restricted in what he could produce, nevertheless he turned out some cracking pieces of work. I've posted some of my faves here.
