Suprematist composition, 1916, Kasimir Malevitch

A major artist of early abstraction, Malevitch was the founder of Suprematism, a radical form of abstraction which he launched during the First World War. Displayed in 1915, his Black Square is without doubt the most emblematic example of this movement. Malevitch's works present a total form of abstraction, freed of any figurative depictions. His painting had turned into pure sensation and sensitivity, thus becoming an autonomous art detached from its environment or external reality.
