Rotterdam Construction — View from Below THE REALISTIC MANIFESTO of 1919 united science, art, and the common man. Written by Naum Gabo, a native of Russia, it foreshadowed a new era. Gabo began his career in science and engineering but turned his interest to art, correlating the two. Through the years his art has gained him world-wide recognition. His ideas in non-representational sculptoring have been depicted not only in construction of modem material, but also through lectures as a professor, and through written expression. In 1952 Gabo became a citizen of the United States. He now resides in Connecticut.

Each one shapes his own destiny. Man strives for greatness, and is inspired by originality and creativity. Inspiration, as the stepping-stone to achievement, is the basis upon which man builds his aspirations. Throughout the ages, certain qualities have reflected the inner convictions that lead to greatness among men. As our inspiration, Naum Gabo personifies the progressive, yet realistic thinking that leads to the success of the future. Mr. Gabo has revolutionized the field of non-repre-sentational sculpture. Using the materials of today’s modern technology, he has brought together the once widely separated areas of art and science. The students of today are the sculptors who will mold the world of tomorrow. Through the years our minds have been shaped by trained and dedicated teachers. As both science and art have progressed, our concepts have been altered and expanded. The essence of these concepts may be likened to a form by Gabo — vibrant, full of strength and potential. The years have been strenuous, but profitable. At times the stone of academic knowledge may become chipped, but it can always be pieced together by patient efforts. It remains only for us and for our mentors to mold the stone into a perfect form. Linear Construction
