Genoa 1914

Aleksandra Ekster's 1914 painting "Genoa" is a prime example of Cubist style. The painting is characterized by geometric shapes and fragmented forms, giving the viewer the feeling of seeing a city scene from multiple perspectives simultaneously. The use of bright colors and bold brushstrokes create a dynamic and energetic composition, capturing the bustle and energy of the Italian port city. This artwork is a testament to Ekster's mastery of Cubist techniques and her ability to convey a sense of place and movement through abstract means.
