Description

The painting "Suprematism - 1916" by Kazimir Malevich is a sublime manifestation of the aesthetic philosophy that he developed and titled as suprematism. This movement, born in the Russia of the early twentieth century, seeks to overcome the traditional forms of figurative art and manages to express the "supremacy of pure sensitivity" in art. In this particular work, Malevich orchestra an abstract composition that highlights for its study of color, shape and geometry, devoid of any figurative or narrative representation.

At first glance, "suprematism - 1916" is presented as an intriguing set of geometric shapes arranged on a white background. This absence of any reference to real objects is precisely what makes this painting a forceful statement of suprematism. Malevich uses a white background to symbolize vacuum and infinity, a kind of primary space on which rectangle, square and line geometric shapes float and coexist without apparent hierarchies.

Each form in the work seems to be carefully placed, creating a feeling of dynamic equilibrium. The predominant figures seem to be a inclined blue rectangle, a black square and a red rectangle that seems to derive towards the bottom. Echoing the suprematist theory, the colors here are not merely decorative but have a clear intention of creating tension and movement. Blue and red, colors of strong emotional load, are contrasted with the austere black and the white space that surrounds them. The interaction of these elements achieves what Malevich sought: a feeling of infinity and freedom from the non -representative.

There are no characters in "suprematism - 1916", nor need them. The focus of the work is in the visual and emotional experience that triggers in the viewer. Malevich invites us to abandon our usual perceptions and immerse ourselves in a state of contemplation on the nature of artistic creation.

In historical context, this painting is in a crucial period in Malevich's career and in Russian avant -garde art. After World War I and in the face of revolutionary changes in Russia, suprematism offered a new salvation table, being disconnected from the classical and traditional representations of European art. The suprematism thus expressed a complete breakdown not only with the past, but also with contemporary artistic currents, opening the way to total abstraction.

"Supremeism - 1916" is not only representative of the suprematist style, but also reverbera with Malevich's vast ambition to explore new dimensions of pictorial space and human perception. In this work, the arrangement of forms and colors evokes an almost cosmic harmony, a visual melody that continues to play in the viewer's mind long after leaving the painting.

Kazimir Malevich, with his suprematism, bequeathed us a new visual vocabulary that transcended the canvas borders. "Supremeism - 1916" It is an irrefutable proof of the ability of the art of exceeding the limits of physical representation and entering the vast territories of emotional and spiritual experience.
