Naum Gabo, Model for Constructive Torso, 1917-18

From the Berlinische Galerie:

Gabo’s conception of art was the tendency not to agree to socialist realism. He moved to Berlin in 1922, where he participated in the First Russian Art Exhibition. In 1935, he fled the Nazi regime to London, and later emigrated to the USA, where he died in the 1977

A good example of Gabo’s new sculptural concept is the Constructivist torso of 1917. Gabo’s figure has not evolved from a core mass, but is composed of individual geometric area segments. Plasticity is instead designed with the two-dimensional means of line and surface. The resulting void between the plastic surface segments makes the space an integral part of the sculpture.

The U.S. Anti-Doping Agency says 11 of Lance Armstrong’s former teammates testified against him in its investigation of the cyclist, revealing “the most sophisticated, professionalized and successful doping program that sport has ever seen.”

USADA will deliver its reasoned decision against Armstrong later Wednesday, a summary of the facts it used to hand him a lifetime suspension and erase his seven Tour de France titles.

In a news release previewing the decision, USADA CEO Travis Tygart said it would include more than 1,000 pages of evidence. He listed 11 of Armstrong’s former teammates, including George Hincapie, Floyd Landis and Tyler Hamilton, as among those providing evidence that led to the sanction.

This is quite the dramatic picture. I sometimes eat energy gels during (long) bike rides. I call it my amateur doping. Which it is not, but oh well.

This is ridiculous.
