Suprematism
Representative work: Epopeia. Literaturnyi sbornik, no. 2 by El Lissitzky
A Russian abstract art movement founded by Kazimir Malevich that focused on basic geometric forms — circles, squares, lines, rectangles — painted in a limited range of colors. Sought to express pure artistic feeling rather than depict the visual world.
