El Lissitzky (Russian artist and graphic designer, 1890 - 1941) created his series of architectonic figures after seeing a production of “Victory Over the Sun”, the futuristic Russian opera with music by Mikhail Matyushin (Russian painter and composer, 1861 – 1934) and costumes/stage designed by Kasimir Malevich (Russian painter and art theoretician, 1879 – 1935). Paired up with Malevich’s set design and costumes, this pro-technological phonosemantic opera inspired Lissitzky to recreate figures of the opera’s main protagonists as suprematist automatons.
