Description
The work * composition with a black circle * (1916) by Kazimir Malevich embodies the quintessence of suprematism, an artistic movement founded by Malevich itself that seeks the superiority of pure sensitivity in abstract art. This particular work stands out for its economy of forms and the roundness of its geometric iconography.
The paint is dominated by a large black circle that serves as the central element around which the composition is organized. This circle, opaque and perfect, imposes an unappealable presence on the canvas that immediately captures the attention of the observer. The choice of black is not fortuitous; In Malevich's artistic theory, this color represents the denial of the object and the entry into a domain of purely sensory perception.
Surrounding the imposing black circle, we find a set of geometric shapes apparently arranged randomly, but that under a deeper analysis reveal a deliberate balance. The lines and rectangles in white, gray tones and a discreet touch of red contribute to that intricate visual dance that characterizes suprematism. This provision of forms seeks to transcend the material representation, inviting those who observe a state of contemplation where spatial logic gives way to a more intuitive and emotional perception.
Malevich, in his attempt to strip art of any reference to the material world, practically eliminates the traditional perspective and volume in this piece. Instead, it focuses on the intrinsic qualities of shapes and color, underlining the interrelation between them to create a visual dynamic that seems to float in an indeterminate space. The absence of recognizable characters or representations allows the viewer to concentrate completely on the compositional structure and chromatic interactions.
The meaning of this work and other similar in Malevich production cannot be underestimated. These works are products of your infinite search to represent the "zero degree" of painting, a point at which art exists for itself and not as a replica of everyday reality. The simplicity and purity of * composition with a black circle * demand from the viewer a different type of commitment: one in which personal interpretation and aesthetic appreciation become the true protagonists of artistic experience.
Although some may find in this radical abstraction a coldness or distance, the reality is that Malevich offers a new way to participate in art, one in which each element is a gate to new dimensions of perception and emotion. * Composition with a black circle* is established as well as a bold and visionary statement that continues to resonate in the annals of the history of modern art, claiming the supremacy of the pure sensory gaze on the objective representation.
