The project of the propaganda installation by Gustavs Klucis is a small architectural form in the style of constructivism. The artist actively participated in the development of various projects for festive Moscow. This installation, as well as the “Screen-tribune” and “Rotating information installation”, was created for the IV Congress of the Comintern. Many of the designs were carried out not only in the capital – the artist constantly published his drawings with descriptions in the magazines Lef, Time and others. Klucis’s works represent a whole era in art related to the search for expressiveness, openness to new trends and bold experiments.
