“Suprematism” is an abstract artwork created by Kazimir Malevich in 1915 as part of the Suprematism art movement. This composition is a significant example of Malevich’s explorations into geometric abstraction, emphasizing basic geometric forms and a limited color palette, thus achieving a sense of purity in visual expression.
The artwork features a series of black geometric shapes, such as rectangles and squares, scattered across a white background. The shapes vary in size and orientation, creating a dynamic and asymmetrical composition. Among these geometric forms, a small yellow circle stands out, adding a subtle contrast to the otherwise monochromatic scheme. The texture within the black shapes appears to have a cracked, intricate pattern, providing a tactile visual element to the otherwise flat forms. The overall composition reflects the principles of Suprematism, focusing on basic geometric forms and the supremacy of pure artistic feeling.
