Retry Correct Incorrect As Artland Magazine explained, Suprematism was a radical art movement in Russia during the First World War that took abstract art to its logical extreme. Suprematist artists tended to make images entirely out of simple shapes like circles, squares, and crosses. As Kazimir Malevich himself put it, “In the year 1913, trying desperately to free art from the dead weight of the real world, I took refuge in the form of the square.”
