Description
Kazimir Malewicz's work was largely erased from the cultural scene for decades, even during his lifetime. It wasn't until the late 1950s that his oeuvre was rediscovered in the West, and another three decades passed before it became accessible to the Russian public. The artist's work has been subject to various interpretative filters, including aesthetic, political, and cultural perspectives. However, some foundational myths about Malewicz's background and place in modern European art have persisted, hindering a deeper understanding of his artistic message. Andrei Nakov's book aims to challenge anti-modernist visual and cultural prejudices, uncovering hidden layers of creative production that shed new light on 20th-century modernity.
