Talk:Constructivism (art)

message: Is it just me, or does this page do an awful job of actually describing Constructivism? It gives a fairly good history and describes certain interactions with other movements and developments, but unless you already know about Constructivism, it would appear to me that this page would be of little help in describing exactly what Constructivism is all about... --patton1138 (talk) 15:13, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Definition? 

message: The introduction now states: 
:Constructivism .. dismissed "pure" art in favour of an art used as an instrument for social purposes, specifically the construction of a socialist system.
This definition is completely different from the german WPs and other european ones. Our understanding is that the "construction" in the term is not aimed at some political idea but at the construction of the respective work _out of basic elements_. In terms of graphical works these were for example circles, triangles, squares. Please, have a look into a wider range of literature and consider correcting the introduction. --Bernd-vdb 20:39, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: "accordingly" is what I and others clearly dispute. Are there any sources for the assumption that because it started in Russia around 1919 it would be connected to "social purpose"? This looks more like original research to me. --Bernd-vdb 18:12, 13 November 2007 (UTC)

text: Sorry, but putting the 'social purpose' in the introduction while omitting the conceptional (and in no way  'material') aspect of construction (out of basic elements, be they physical, mental, aesthetical or whatever) is a biased point of view. Historic aspects might be interesting here but reducing constructivsm in art to a historic movement is simply wrong. As I am no native english speaker I will not change the article but I ask you and others strongly to think about correcting this. --Bernd-vdb 15:01, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
