In 1915, he created what is widely lauded as the \u003cb\u003efirst and ultimate abstract artwork\u003c\/b\u003e : \u003ci\u003eBlack Square\u003c\/i\u003e , a black rectangle on a white background, hailed as the “zero point of painting,” a \u003cb\u003eseminal moment for modern and abstract practice\u003c\/b\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn this book, we follow Malevich’s key innovations and ideas and place his groundbreaking achievements within the context of both the \u003cb\u003eRussian and global avant-garde\u003c\/b\u003e. Through rich illustrations of his work, we explore the artist’s theory of \u003cb\u003eSuprematism\u003c\/b\u003e, based on severe geometric abstraction and “ \u003cb\u003ethe supremacy of pure feeling in creative art\u003c\/b\u003e ”; his leading role in the development of \u003cb\u003eConstructivism\u003c\/b\u003e ; as well as his interests in philosophy, literature, Russian folk art, and the fourth dimension.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Taschen America, LLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48188170895600,"sku":"9783836546393","price":15.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783836546393_p0.jpg?v=1769887897","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783836546393","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
