Composition with the letter “U”

author

Aleksei Morgunov

description

Mediums: oil, canvas.
Location: the St. Petersburg State Russian Museum (Russia).

The picture can be considered transitional from the styles of cubofuturism to suprematism – the author used their techniques and principles equally. The composition contains an object depicted in a plane manner and dynamics. At the same time, it represents a suprematist concept of planes and elements that are painted in pure colour and at the same time freely “soar” in infinite space, marking the global philosophy of art, aimed at rebuilding the world based on its geometric components.
