Conceptual Art Video Performance
Suprematism refers to an art movement originating in Russia around 1915, characterized by its emphasis on basic geometric forms such as circles, squares, lines, and rectangles, often arranged in abstract compositions. The term was coined by its founder, Kazimir Malevich, who sought to create a new visual language that prioritized the "supremacy" of pure feeling and sensation over representational or objective content. As a form of Conceptual Art, Suprematism often aimed to convey abstract ideas through non-representational means, while its association with Modern Art reflects its alignment with broader trends in early 20th century art towards abstraction, experimentation, and the rejection of traditional artistic conventions.
