Non-objective World: Bauhausbucher 11

Kasimir Malevich s treatise on Suprematism was included in the Bauhausbucher series in 1927, as was Piet Mondrian’s reflections on Russian Constructivism in 1925 (New Design, Bauhausbucher 5). Like Mondrian, who was never an official member of the Bauhaus, Malevich nevertheless had a close connection to the ideas of the school in terms of content. This volume 11 laid the foundation for the Russian avant-garde artist’s late work: to wrest the mask of life from the true face of art. AUTHOR: Kasimir Malevich studied at the Moscow School of Painting, Sculpture and Architecture in the studio of Fedor Rerberg. He participated in several group exhibitions in St. Petersburg and Paris, before travelling to Germany in 1927, where he visited the Bauhaus in Dessau. Today, Malevich is known as one of the most important artists and theorists in the context of the Russian avant-garde. 92 illustrations
