Elena Zemlyanitsyna was a Russian artist and graphic designer known for her contributions to the Constructivist movement. She was born in Moscow and studied at the Stroganov School of Applied Art, where she was influenced by the ideas of Kazimir Malevich and the Suprematist movement. Zemlyanitsyna's work focused on geometric abstraction and the exploration of space and colour. She was also involved in the production of political propaganda during the early Soviet period, designing posters and illustrations for various state organizations. Zemlyanitsyna was a member of the Institute of Artistic Culture (INKhUK), a group of artists and theorists who sought to bring art and industry closer together through their work. She continued to produce art and design work throughout the 1920s and 1930s, and her work was exhibited in numerous exhibitions both in the Soviet Union and internationally. Sadly, Zemlyanitsyna's career was cut short by her untimely death during World War II. She was killed during the German invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, and much of her work was lost or destroyed as a result. However, her contributions to the early development of Constructivism continue to be recognized and celebrated today.
