Description of the Image
The Black Square is a minimalist painting consisting of a black square centered on a white background. The simplicity of this composition belies its profound impact on modern art. This work marked a radical departure from traditional representation and symbolized Malevich's vision of pure artistic expression, unencumbered by the constraints of reality.
Historical Context
The Black Square was first shown in The Last Futurist Exhibition 0,10 in 1915. It is considered a breakthrough work and the inception for the launch of Malevich's Suprematist art movement (1915–1919). In his manifesto for the Suprematist movement, Malevich said that "the square is not a subconscious form but a conscious one."
Legacy
The Black Square has had an enduring influence on modern art. It paved the way for abstract art and inspired generations of artists to explore new forms of expression. This painting is now part of the collection at Museo del Prado (Spain).
