Kazimir Malevich’s cross is a symbol of pure, spiritual feeling over reality. He believed art should represent the soul and not necessarily reality.

SOLD

In 1915 Malevich created a painting the world knows as 'Red Square' and that he titled 'A Peasant Woman in Two Dimensions'.

To Malevich this painting was about letting go of all materialism, but to the art world he had created total abstraction and the development of Constructivism.

The Black Square by Kazimir Malevich is often thought to be the first painting that wasn't of something. The Black Square is not just the first painting in a new movement. It’s a totally different kind of art object to what had been seen before.

Malevich set out to change forever the idea that painting has to represent reality. I brought it back to reality by adding a woman enjoying his revolutionary painting.

All the best, Gerard

Like other Suprematist artist in the Russian revolution, Lyubov Popova believed that art should reflect the industrial, egalitarian future. This meant making work that echoed the geometry and efficiency of machines, as well as moving into a pure abstraction unfettered by elitist ideas of skill, or 'natural talent', common to ideas of artistic genius. I wonder what she would make of my painting.

Kazimir Malevich was the founder of the artistic and philosophical school of Suprematism. He invented this term because he believed that art should transcend subject matter. The truth of shape and color should reign 'supreme' over the image or narrative.

His ideas about forms and meaning in art would eventually constitute the theoretical underpinnings of abstract art. Malevich worked in a variety of styles, but his most important and famous works concentrated on the exploration of pure geometric forms.

With the piece 'Black Cross' Malevich explores an important aspect of human life, that of the power to choose between two options. In some cases, this choice is reduced to one between good and evil. In other situations, it is not so obvious which option is good or will bring results down the road. Perhaps that is what my figure is thinking about as well.
