Rayonism |
Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Wikipedia | 0.04 sec. |
Rayonism(from Russian, Luchizm: “ray-ism”) Russian art movement founded 1912–13 by Mikhail Larionov (1881–1964) and his wife, Natalia Goncharova (1881–1962), which represented one of the first steps toward the development of abstract art in Russia. A synthesis of Cubism, Futurism, and Orphism, Rayonism was described by Larionov as “concerned with spatial forms that are obtained through the crossing of reflected rays from various objects.” It apparently ended after 1914, when its founders departed for Paris.
