The artwork titled “Construction I,” created by Theo van Doesburg around 1925 in Germany, is a collage on paper. Measuring 31 x 15.5 cm, this abstract piece is part of the Constructivism movement and is currently housed at Kunsthaus Zürich in Zürich, Switzerland.
This composition features a stylized arrangement dominated by a prominent black letter “A” juxtaposed above a sequence of architecturally inspired, geometric forms resembling a series of steps or platforms. The collage technique is evident in the layering and the texture of the elements, giving it a dynamic yet structured appearance. The minimalist palette and the precise organization reflect the Constructivist emphasis on abstraction and rationality, conveying a sense of ordered progression and spatial depth.
