Naum Gabo ist einer der Wegbereiter der
Moderne. In den späten 1910er Jahren
brach er mit traditionellen Vorstellungen
von Skulptur. In seinem „Konstruktiven
Torso" setzte er den Körper der Figur aus
ineinandergreifenden Flächen zusammen.
Statt Masse und einem geschlossenen
Volumen nutzt Gabo das Zusammenspiel
von Licht und Schatten, Zwischenräume
und die Leere. 1922 stellte er in Berlin eine
aus Eisenblechen geschweißte Version
des Torsos aus. Sie ist seit dieser Zeit
verschollen. Das Modell aus Pappe im
gleichen Maßstab wurde erst nach Gabos
Tod wiederentdeckt. Der Künstler, der mehr-
fach emigrieren musste, hatte es zerlegt in
einer Seekiste aufbewahrt.
Naum Gabo was a trailblazer for
modernist art. In the late 1910s he broke
With the traditional concept of sculpture.
The body in his "Constructive Torso"
was put together from interlocking
surfaces. Instead of mass and a
contained volume, Gabo used the
interplay of light and shadow, gaps and
voids. In Berlin in 1922, he exhibited a
version of the torso welded from iron
sheets. lt has been lost ever since, but
the 1:1 cardboard model resurfaced
after Gabo's death. The artist,
emigrating from one place to the next,
had dismantled it and stored the pieces
in a sea chest.
