About Man in Suprematist Landscape

“Man in Suprematist Landscape” is an artwork created by Kazimir Malevich in the year 1930. Rendered in oil on canvas, this piece belongs to the Neo-Suprematism art movement and is part of the “2nd Peasant Cycle” series. The dimensions of the artwork measure 98 by 78 centimeters. The genre of this portrait stands out with its distinct composition and stylistic elements central to Malevich’s innovative approach.

The artwork portrays a solitary figure standing with their back to the viewer, dressed in a red and white garment that blends into the abstract background. The flat, vibrant colors of the figure’s attire contrast sharply with the geometric forms and fields of color that compose the landscape, predominantly in shades of blue and white. The figure appears to be situated in a stylized, almost surreal environment, with a minimalistic representation of a house and trees in the background, symbolizing a rural or peasant setting. The overall visual impression of the artwork aligns with Malevich’s characteristic focus on geometric shapes and color contrasts, embodying the principles of the Suprematist movement and its evolution into Neo-Suprematism.
