Model for 'Spheric Theme' 1937

Naum Gabo's "Model for 'Spheric Theme'" (1937) is a minimalist sculpture that embodies the principles of Constructivism. Gabo, a pioneer of abstract art, explored the interplay of form, space, and light in this piece. The transparent plastic construction creates an illusion of weightlessness, while the intersecting curves and angles engage the viewer in an exploration of volume and depth. Gabo's work, known for its geometric precision and emphasis on materials, exemplifies the modernist ideals of purity and objectivity in art.
