About This Item
New York: The Guggenheim Museum. Softbound. New in shrink wrap. Black glossy wraps. 272 pp. with 120 color and 60 bw plates SOFTCOVER copy. Malevich was among the first painters to produce wholly abstract paintings. He was also the first artist to claim authorship to a work he contracted out to a printing shop. This exhibition catalogue concentrates on the revolutionary early work of this Russian master. Softcover copy. "In 1915, Kazimir Malevich (1878-1935) changed the future of Modern art when his experiments in painting led the Russian avant-garde into pure abstraction. He called his innovation Suprematism - an art of pure geometric form meant to be universally comprehensible regardless of cultural or ethnic origin. His Suprematist masterpieces, including Black Square (1915) and White Square on White (1920-27), continue to inspire artists throughout the world." "Accompanying the first exhibition to focus exclusively on this defining moment in Malevich's career, Kazimir Malevich Suprematism features nearly 120 paintings, drawings, and objects, among them several recently rediscovered masterworks. In addition, the book includes previously unpublished letters, texts, and diaries, along with essays by international scholars, who shed new light on this influential figure and his devotion to the spiritual in art."--Jacket.
