Painting
Aleksei Gan was a Russian graphic designer, typographer, and theorist central to Constructivism in the early Soviet period. Active from the 1910s onward, he developed a practice rooted in geometric abstraction and industrial visual language, applying modernist principles to book design, posters, and typographic systems. His work prioritized legibility and functional clarity as radical acts within revolutionary culture.
