The square is not a subconscious form. It is the creation of intuitive reason. The face of the new art. The square is a living, regal infant. The first step of pure creation in art.
— Kazimir Malevich (1879-1935)

View Larger Only dull and impotent artists screen their work with sincerity. In art there is need for truth, not sincerity. —Kazimir Malevich
The machine is no more than a brush and a very primitive one at that…All tools set forces in motion, which are directed to the crystallising of amorphous nature - which is the aim of nature itself… The machine has not separated us from nature; through it we have discovered a new nature never before surmised…Our work is a limb of nature.
— Lissitzky (via oenggun)

I felt only night within me and it was then that I conceived the new art, which I called Suprematism.
