{"product_id":"kazimir-malevich-the-climax-of-disclosure","title":"Kazimir Malevich","description":"Kazimir Malevich (1878–1935) rose to instant prominence among the Russian avant-garde when, in December 1915, he contributed thirty-nine paintings to an exhibition in Leningrad which were of such a reduced and sophisticated abstract quality that even today they seem to possess a luminous conceptual power. Malevich’s sudden and startling realization of a non-objective way of painting – which he termed Suprematism – stands as a seminal moment in the history of 20th-century art.\n\nIn \u003ci\u003eKazimir Malevich: The Climax of Disclosure\u003c\/i\u003e, now available in a compact pocket format, Rainer Crone and David Moos trace the artist’s development from his beginnings in Ukraine and early years in Moscow – where he was closely involved in the Futurist circle – through to the late 1920s and beyond. The authors demonstrate that it is only through a close and sustained reading of Malevich’s late – and still widely misunderstood – painterly \u003ci\u003eœuvre\u003c\/i\u003e that his extraordinarily inventive stance can truly be comprehended. Crone and Moos trace the close relationship between Malevich’s practice and other contemporary non-political revolutions in physics, linguistics and poetry. They present Malevich as a uniquely creative artist, embodying in his work many of the insights and discoveries that define the twentieth century and the condition of modern life.","brand":"Reaktion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32034996715603,"sku":"9781780233796","price":29.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781780233796_49a4ade4-aee2-4351-a56e-858bc7e4a068.jpg?v=1777117531","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/kazimir-malevich-the-climax-of-disclosure","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
