Exterior Design & Architecture from the most influential female Architect
As part of the “Design Miami / Basel”, in Basel this summer, a major project entitled “Zaha Hadid and Suprematism” was presented, which shows her continual artistic development under the influence of the Russian avant-garde. Hadid has transformed “Galerie Gmurzynska” into a black and white, fluid, dynamic space and in the unusual way presented the Russian constructivist works and their impact on its overall creative output. The exhibition includes work of legendary Russian artists: Ilya Chashnik, El Lissitzky, Kasimir Malevich, Alexander Rodchenko and Nikolai Suetin. An interesting setting of the exhibition, created by modern and classic - a cult constructivist terms, stress the incredible contemporary contributions Zaha Hadid has consistently made to the culture of our time, as well as the enduring influence and importance of the Russian Avant Garde. It was an honour to talk with Zaha Hadid on her last exhibition, inspiration, roots and future plans.
