Kazimir Malewicz is undoubtedly one of the most significant artists of the 20th century, famed for his Suprematist works such as 'Black Square' and 'White on White'. Incredibly, his art only received its due in the West in the late 1950s, with another 30 years before it could be accessible in Russia. In this critical study, Andrei Nakov dissembles some foundational myths about the artist’s ethnic background, his affinity for the religious iconography of Russia and his place in modern European art.The artist’s concept of Suprematist forms is central to Nakov’s study, which interrogates certain anti-modernist visual and cultural prejudices. Andrei Nakov (born 1941) has published numerous theoretical studies, monographs and exhibition catalogues on the Russian avant-garde, Futurism, Dada, Constructivism, contemporary art and European abstract art.
