Non Objective Composition (1921)

Sergei Yakovlevich Senkin (1894–1963) was a twentieth-century Russian artist. Senkin studied with Kasimir Malevitch during the 1920s in Vkhutemas. He sometimes visited Malevitch in Vitebsk with his friend Gustav Klutsis. There, he developed his own approach to Suprematism. He used a variety of artistic techniques such as graphic and poster design, photography and photomontage as well as painting. He worked together with Gustav Klutsis on agitational posters in 1922-1937. In 1928 he joined the Constructivist October Group.

Senkin was involved with El Lissitzky providing the frieze for the Pressa exhibition in Cologne 1928.[1]
