Δ Artist: Kazimir Malevich testing

Last Monday's theory course mentioned a Russian painter and art theoretician called Kazimir Malevich. He is also an originator of suprematism movement as well as an  avant-garde of art.

In that course, I saw some of his works and paintings which inspired me on the spatial field. (I know it might be a little bit wired to say that, I used to see things with a spatial perspective which means that I see things as they are aerial views of cubes or sections of spaces.)

Like those two images above, they are abstract concepts to express the idea of suprematism but at the very first sight, I just intuitively saw them as some vertical and horizontal plan practices. With that way, they inspired me by the positions they were arranged and the colour as well. Not to mention that they are more than what I saw.

The most famous paintings of Kazimir Malevich are the Black Square (1915) and the Suprematist Composition: White on White (1917-1918).

 (Black Square)

(Suprematist Composition: White on White)


The Black Square represents a series of non-objective paintings which related to a new word Kazimir Malevich created, suprematism which refers to the supremacy of the new geometric forms. With no textures and a simple symmetrical shape, it perfumes a pure geometric abstraction.

During the Russian Revolution, with an optimistic perspective, Kazimir Malevich saw a possibility of a new sociality and commence with a series of practice to open the next stage of his works. The White on White gave the world a huge shock by the soft outlines of the imprecise square make the white austerity of the painting seem more human. It breaks the boundary of the values if arts at that time.
