![]() Malevich and Interwar Modernism: Russian Art and the International of the Square by Éva Forgács English | February 24, 2022 | ISBN: 135020417X | 328 pages | PDF | 10 MB This book examines the legacy of international interwar modernism as a case of cultural transfer through the travels of a central motif: the square. The square was the most emblematic and widely known form/motif of the international avant-garde in the interwar years. It originated from the Russian artist Kazimir Malevich who painted The Black Square on White Ground in 1915 and was then picked up by another Russian artist El Lissitzky and the Dutch artist Theo van Doesburg. It came to be understood as a symbol of a new internationalism and modernity and while Forgács uses it as part of her overall narrative, she focuses on it and its journey across borders to follow its significance, how it was used by the above key artists and how its meaning became modified in Western Europe. ![]() Stephen Betchen, "Magnetic Partners: Discover How the Hidden Conflict That Once Attract" English | 2014 | pages: 240 | ISBN: 1451614039 | EPUB | 0,3 mb Do you and your partner argue about the same things over and over again?
