About Living in a big hotel

The artwork titled “Living in a Big Hotel,” created by Kazimir Malevich in 1914, belongs to the Cubo-Futurism art movement and is classified as a genre painting. This piece exemplifies a synthesis of Cubist and Futurist elements, emblematic of Malevich’s innovative approach during this period.

The artwork features a complex array of geometric forms and fragmented perspectives, characteristic of Cubo-Futurism. It utilizes a muted color palette dominated by shades of gray, blue, and beige, contributing to an abstract and multifaceted visual experience. The composition appears to depict an interior scene, possibly within a hotel setting, as suggested by the title, rendered in a deconstructed and dynamic style. The intricate interplay of shapes and volumes creates a sense of motion and depth, inviting viewers to discern the bustling and transient nature of life in a grand hotel.
