Suprematist Composition: Airplane Flying

Suprematist Composition: Airplane Flying by Kazimir Malevich, who was not only a painter, but an art theoretician. In the painting you see geometric objects. There are 13 objects (3 black, 2 blue, 6 yellow, and 2 red) He was a pioneer of geometric abstract art and the originator of the avant-garde Suprematism movement. In 1915, he laid down the foundations of Suprematism. Because his new style claimed supremacy over the forms of nature, he called it “Suprematism.”
