Painter Alexander Shevchenko 1924

"Painter Alexander Shevchenko" is a photomontage by Alexander Rodchenko from 1924, a prime example of his experimentation with form and composition. The image depicts the artist Alexander Shevchenko, with his face seemingly split in two, highlighting the avant-garde and experimental techniques of the time. This style of photomontage became increasingly popular throughout the 1920s, and Rodchenko's contributions to this style helped solidify his place as a leader in the visual arts during this period.
