Rick Owens: "There were some cut-out cardboard sculptures painted white at London’s Gagosian Gallery that were so crisp and pure, I couldn't stop thinking about them....."
This image of Picasso represents the time he spent making sculptures from string, paper and cardboard. He had a huge influence on Constructivism, a movement that represented the proletarian upbringing of artists (such as Vladimir Tatlin and Naum Gabo), inspiring them to create art from everyday materials around them. Owens will bring this simplified beauty to his S/S11 collection.
