  • "Ot konstruktsii k tekhnike i izobreteniiu" [От конструкции к технике и изобретению] [9 Mar 1922], typescript, 3 pp; Khan-Magomedov collection, Moscow; printed in Maria Gough, The Artist as Producer, Harvard University, 1997. Given as lecture at INKhUK as part of the ongoing discussion about a "move into production"; outlines two different kinds of construction: the "artistic" and "real 'structural-technical'" (podlinnyi "stroitel'no-tekhnicheskii"), and argues that the role of the Constructivist artist must be not that of a creator of utilitarian objects (as in tekhnika) but of an inventor (izobretatel' ).
