EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a mesmerizing set design for Shakespeare's Macbeth, as illustrated by Alexandra Exter in her renowned work "Maquettes de Theatre" published in the 1920s. The lithograph captures the essence of Exter's avant-garde style, combining elements of constructivism and cubism to create a visually striking composition. Exter, a Ukrainian artist, fled from the Soviet Union to France in 1924 due to lack of support for her experimental art. Her innovative approach is evident in this piece, with geometric shapes and abstract forms adorning the stage backdrop. The use of spotlights adds an element of drama and theatricality to the scene. The graphic style employed by Exter perfectly encapsulates the spirit of the Jazz Age, reflecting the modernist movement that was prevalent during this time. This particular illustration exemplifies Exter's mastery in capturing both the essence and atmosphere of a performance through her unique artistic vision. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported into a world where imagination takes center stage. It serves as a testament to Exter's talent as well as William Shakespeare's enduring influence on art across centuries. Through abstraction and innovation, Exter breathes new life into Macbeth, inviting us to explore its depths through her abstract interpretation. This print from Bridgeman Images allows us to appreciate not only Exter's contribution but also serves as a reminder of how art can transcend boundaries and captivate audiences throughout history.
