Description
Kazimir Malevich, central figure of Russian avant -garde and founder of suprematism, invites us to explore a world of abstract shapes and colors with his work "Sun's victory suit: reader - 1913". This piece, created in the context of the futuristic theatrical project "Victoria on the Sun", is a vibrant testimony of the spirit of avant -garde art of the early twentieth century.
The painting "Sun's victory suit: reader" is intrinsically linked to the scenery and revolutionary concepts of the Malevich Theater and its collaborators. When observing the painting, We find geometric figures that seem to float in an indefinite space, challenging the severity and conventions of three -dimensional representation. The "reader", the protagonist of this suit, seems to summarize in a set of rectangles and curves that evoke both modernity and rupture with traditional realism.
Color is one of the predominant elements in this work. Malevich uses a bold contrast of primary and secondary colors, with predominance of blacks, red and blue. His palette reinforces the intensity of forms and underlines the intention of creating a pure visual experience, without the distraction of the details of the natural world. The omnipresent black could symbolize the challenge to the sun, the traditional light source, underlining the search in suprematist art of a new form of intellectual and spiritual "lighting".
The composition of the work is a testimony of Malevich's commitment to suprematism, an artistic movement that cares more about the perception than representation. The absence of horizontal or vertical lines defining a sense of disorientation and freedom, pushing the viewer to reconsider their assumptions about space and shape. The geometric figures, although abstract, have a sense of movement and rhythm, a dynamism that reflects the energy of Russian modernism and its optimism for the future.
"Victoria over the Sun" was a futuristic play that broke with many scenic and aesthetic traditions. Malevich's role as costume and scenery designer was crucial to communicate the radical ideas of the libretto, written by Alexei Kruchyonykh, and Mijaíl Matiushin's music. This interdisciplinary collaboration was aimed at not only entertaining, but also educating and causing, challenging the public to embrace a new vision of the world through the decomposition and reconfiguration of known reality.
In the context of the play, the "reader" suit can be seen as a statement about the role of intellect and knowledge in the new era that these artists anticipate. The faceless figure, without identifiable features and defined only by abstract forms, suggests a universal vision of the human being, transcending individual and cultural barriers.
"Costume for the victory over the sun: reader - 1913" It is not simply a painting; It is a manifestation of artistic and philosophical radicalism of its time. Kazimir Malevich, by reducing human being to its most basic components and playing with the perception of shape and color, invites us to an introspective and reflective journey, offering not only a work of art, but a door towards a new form of Understand the world.
