    Kasimir Malevich (1878-1935), a Russian painter best known for his founding in 1913 of the Suprematism movement, is one of the founding fathers of the avant-garde. His nonobjective paintings, such as "Black Square" and "White on White," feature geometric forms on a flatly painted surface. Malevich taught that a true artist was not interested in concrete objects but in surface, color and texture as such. This video portrays the vision of this innovative artist whose aesthetic ideas revolutionized customary perceptions of the fine arts.
