Exhibited at the 1912 [[Salon d'Automne]], Paris and the 1913 [[Armory Show]] in New York City, Chicago and Boston. Photograph from ''Comœdia Illustré'' (1912) of the original sculpture, later accidentally destroyed]]

Alexander Archipenko was born in [[Kyiv]] ([[Russian Empire]], now [[Ukraine]]) in 1887, to Porfiry Antonowych Archipenko and Poroskowia Vassylivna Machowa Archipenko; he was the younger brother of [[Eugene Archipenko]].

From 1902 to 1905 he attended the [[Kyiv Art School]] (KKhU). In 1906 he continued his education in the arts at [[Serhiy Svetoslavsky]] (Kyiv), and later that year had an exhibition there with [[Alexander Bogomazov]]. He then moved to [[Moscow]] where he had a chance to exhibit his work in some group shows.

Archipenko moved to [[Paris]] in 1908<ref name="AAA"/> and quickly enrolled in the École des Beaux-Arts, which he left after a few weeks.<ref>{{cite web|title=Alexander Archipenko|url=https://www.theartstory.org/artist/archipenko-alexander/|access-date=27 July 2022}}</ref> He was a resident in the artist's colony [[La Ruche (residence)|La Ruche]], among [[émigré]] Ukrainian artists: [[Vladimir Baranov-Rossine|Wladimir Baranoff-Rossine]], [[Sonia Delaunay|Sonia Delaunay-Terk]], and [[Nathan Altman]]. After 1910 he had exhibitions at ''[[Société des Artistes Indépendants|Salon des Indépendants]]'', ''[[Salon d'Automne]]'' together with [[Aleksandra Ekster]], [[Kazimir Malevich]], [[Vadym Meller]], [[Sonia Delaunay|Sonia Delaunay-Terk]], [[Georges Braque]], [[André Derain]], and others.

In 1912, Archipenko had his first personal exhibition at the [[Karl Ernst Osthaus-Museum|Museum Folkwang]] at [[Hagen]] in [[German Empire|Germany]], and from 1912 to 1914 he was teaching at his own Art School in [[Paris]].

[[File:Alexander Archipenko, 1913, Recherche de plastique, 1913. Erster Deutscher Herbstsalon, Berlin, 1913, postcard.jpg|thumb|''Recherche de plastique'', 1913. Exhibited at [[Erster Deutscher Herbstsalon]], [[Berlin]], 1913, an exhibition organized by [[Herwarth Walden]] (Galerie [[Der Sturm]]), including [[Jean Metzinger|Metzinger]], [[Robert Delaunay|Delaunay]], [[Albert Gleizes|Gleizes]], [[Fernand Léger|Léger]], [[Louis Marcoussis|Marcoussis]] and [[Picabia]]]]
Four of Archipenko's [[Cubist sculpture]]s, including ''Family Life'' and five of his drawings, appeared in the controversial ''[[Armory Show]]'' in 1913 in [[New York City]]. These works were caricatured in the [[New York World]].<ref>Donald H. Karshan, ''Archipenko, Content and Continuity 1908–1963'', Kovlan Gallery, Chicago, 1968. p. 40.</ref>

Archipenko moved to [[Nice]] in 1914. In 1920 he participated in ''[[Venice Biennale|Twelfth Biennale Internazionale dell'Arte di Venezia]]'' in [[Italy]] and started his own Art school in [[Berlin]] the following year. In 1922 Archipenko participated in the ''[[First Russian Art Exhibition]]'' in the [[Galerie van Diemen|Gallery van Diemen]] in Berlin together with Aleksandra Ekster, Kazimir Malevich, [[Solomon Nikritin]], [[El Lissitzky]], and others.

In 1923, he emigrated to the United States.<ref name="AAA"/> He became a U.S. citizen in 1929. In 1933 he exhibited at the Ukrainian pavilion in [[Chicago]] as part of the [[Century of Progress]] World's Fair. Archipenko contributed the most to the success of the Ukrainian pavilion. His works occupied one room and were valued at $25,000.<ref>Halich, W. (1937) ''Ukrainians in the United States'', Chicago {{ISBN|0-405-00552-0}}</ref>

In 1936 Archipenko participated in an exhibition ''Cubism and Abstract Art'' in [[New York City|New York]] as well as numerous exhibitions across [[Europe]] and other places in the U.S. He was elected to the [[American Academy of Arts and Letters]] in 1962.<ref name=AAAL>{{cite web|title=Deceased Members |url=http://www.artsandletters.org/academicians2_deceased.php |work=American Academy of Arts and Letters |access-date=July 30, 2011 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110726004624/http://www.artsandletters.org/academicians2_deceased.php |archive-date=26 July 2011 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

Archipenko, along with the French-Hungarian sculptor [[Joseph Csaky]], exhibited at the first public manifestations of [[Cubism]] in Paris; the Salon des Indépendants and Salon d'Automne, 1910 and 1911, being the first, after [[Pablo Picasso]],<ref>[[:File:Womans Head Picasso.jpg]] Picasso, ''Woman's Head'', modeled on [[Fernande Olivier]]</ref> to employ the Cubist style in three dimensions.<ref name="AAA">{{cite web | year=2011 | title=Finding Aid | work=Alexander Archipenko papers, 1904–1986, (bulk 1930–1964) | publisher=[[Archives of American Art]] | url=http://www.aaa.si.edu/collections/alexander-archipenko-papers-7025/more | access-date=17 Jun 2011}}</ref><ref>[http://www.archipenko.org/aa_chron_1910.html The Archipenko Foundation, Chronology, 1910–1914] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130531060520/http://www.archipenko.org/aa_chron_1910.html |date=2013-05-31 }}</ref> Archipenko departed from the [[Sculpture#Neo-Classical|neo-classical sculpture]] of his time, using faceted planes and [[negative space]] to create a new way of looking at the human figure, showing a number of views of the subject simultaneously. He is known for having introducied sculptural voids, and for his inventive mixing of genres throughout his career: devising 'sculpto-paintings', and later experimenting with materials such as clear [[Polymethyl methacrylate|acrylic]] and [[terra cotta]]. Inspired by the works of Pablo Picasso and [[Georges Braque]], he is also credited for introducing the collage to wider audiences with his ''Medrano'' series.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.britannica.com/biography/Alexander-Archipenko|title=Alexander Archipenko {{!}} Ukrainian-American artist|website=Encyclopedia Britannica|language=en|access-date=2019-12-13}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.guggenheim.org/artwork/246|title=Médrano II|date=1913-01-01|website=Guggenheim|language=en-US|access-date=2019-12-13}}</ref>
