Black Square, 1915

$5,700

Description:

Black Square (1915) by Kazimir Malevich is one of the most iconic and revolutionary artworks in the history of modern art. Painted as a simple black square on a white background, it marked a radical departure from representational art and became the cornerstone of Malevich’s Suprematist movement.

The painting symbolized the “zero point of painting,” representing the end of traditional visual language and the beginning of pure artistic feeling. It was first exhibited at the Last Futurist Exhibition of Paintings 0,10 in Petrograd (now St. Petersburg), where it was hung in the “icon corner”—a spot traditionally reserved for religious icons in Russian homes—suggesting a spiritual dimension to this bold abstract form.

Though seemingly minimal, Black Square challenged viewers’ expectations and redefined what art could be, making it a powerful symbol of the avant-garde and a foundational work in the evolution of abstract art.

Artist:

Kazimir Malevich (1879–1935) was a pioneering Russian avant-garde artist best known for founding the art movement Suprematism, which focused on basic geometric forms and pure artistic feeling rather than depicting the visible world. His most iconic work, Black Square (1915), is considered one of the first truly abstract paintings and a radical break from traditional art. Malevich believed that art should transcend material reality and express spiritual purity. His work laid the foundation for much of modern abstract art and influenced generations of artists across the globe
