Suprematism

Suprematism is an art movement founded by Kasimir Malevich, a Russian painter and art theoretician in 1915. In Malevich's own words the movement means 'supremacy of forms' and is formed with the compilation of various geometric shapes.

Kasimir Malevich (1879-1935) was born in what is now Ukraine, he was a pioneer in abstract art and he is the founder of this Avant-garde movement.

Below are some examples of Malevich's Suprematism artwork:
