The Proun Series by El Lissitzky

El Lissitzky attempted to show architecture through art.  He wanted to express his desires for abstract design using 3 dimensions and began doing this on 2 dimensional landscapes.  It was his suprematist style where he developed a series of geometric paintings that were Picasso-like to the senses.  He is quoted as saying his Proun series was:

“The station where one changes from painting to architecture.”
