Suprematism is an early twentieth-century art movement.
The name suprematism refers to an abstract art based upon “the supremacy of pure artistic feeling” rather than on the visual show of objects.
Suprematism is an early twentieth-century art movement focused on the fundamentals of geometry (circles, squares, rectangles), painted in a small number of colors.
What did Suprematism influence?
Suprematism still “lives”, mainly through its influence on other art movements.
Constructivism is very similar to Suprematism, but the movement that Suprematism influenced the most is certainly geometric abstract art.
Sometimes it’s very difficult to make a distinction between these two movements.
Who invented Suprematism?
Kazimir Malevich.
Suprematism was introduced to the world by the Russian artist Kazimir Malevich in 1913 when it became one of the earliest and most radical achievements in abstract art.
