The artwork titled “Red House” was created by Kazimir Malevich in 1932. Executed in oil on canvas, it belongs to the Neo-Suprematism movement and falls under the cityscape genre. The dimensions of the artwork are 63 by 55 centimeters.
In “Red House,” Malevich utilizes a minimalist and geometric approach, characteristic of Neo-Suprematism, to depict a solitary red structure in a stark, abstract landscape. The artwork’s background features a gradient of blues and whites, invoking a sense of vast openness with horizontal bands suggestive of a sky or sea. The foreground and middle ground are dominated by expanses of yellow and green hues, adding to the composition’s layered texture and depth. The central red house, with its stark, bold presence, draws immediate attention, anchoring the viewer’s gaze while contrasting against the otherwise serene and expansive surroundings.
