BLACK SQUARE (1915)
In his book The Non-Objective World, which was published
abroad as a Bauhaus Book in 1927, Malevich described the
inspiration which brought about the powerful image of the black
square on a white ground:
I felt only night within me and it was then that I conceived
the new art, which I called Suprematism.
He created a suprematist “grammar” based on fundamental
geometric forms; in particular, the square and the circle.
In “Zero-Ten! (0.10) exhibition in 1915, Malevich exhibited his
early experiments in suprematist painting. The centerpiece of
his show was the Black Square, placed in what is called
the red/beautiful corner in Russian Orthodox tradition;
the place of the main icon in a house.
