Kazimir Malevich

$ 2.99

The work of the Russian modernist Kazimir Malevich had a profound influence on the development of abstract art in the twentieth century. He developed his own art movement, Suprematism, which sought a form of expression away from the world of natural forms and subject matter, accessing the supremacy of pure feeling and spirituality. Malevich worked in a variety of styles, assimilating the movements of Impressionism, Symbolism, Fauvism and Cubism. Gradually simplifying his style, he developed an approach consisting of pure geometric forms and their relationships to one another, set against minimal backgrounds. Many art historians now regard Malevich as the first prominent artist to exhibit paintings composed entirely of abstract geometrical elements. Delphi’s Masters of Art Series presents the world’s first digital e-Art books, allowing readers to explore the works of great artists in comprehensive detail. This volume presents Malevich’s complete paintings in beautiful detail, with concise introductions, hundreds of high quality images and the usual Delphi bonus material. (Version 1)
