The book traces Malevich's development from his beginnings in Ukraine and early years in Moscow - where he was closely involved in the Futurist circle - through to the late 1920s and beyond. The authors convincingly demonstrate that it is only through a close and sustained reading of Malevich's late - and still widely misunderstood - painterly oeuvre that his extraordinarily inventive stance can truly be comprehended.
