'''Suprematism''' (supremacy of pure artistic feeling, term coined in 1915 by Kazimir Malevich) was an art movement, focused on basic geometric forms, painted in a limited range of colors. In 1912, Kazimir Malevich (1878-1935) began creating [[abstract]] geometric patterns in a style he called ''Suprematism'' - where art could be free from the burden of the object. Suprematist painters were Kseniya Boguslavskaya (1892–1972), Il’ya Chashnik (1902–29), Nikolay Suetin (1897–1954), Vera Yermolayeva (1893–1938) and Lev Yudin (1903–41).

<blockquote>
Under Suprematism I understand the supremacy of pure feeling in creative art. To the Suprematist the visual phenomena of the objective world are, in themselves, meaningless; the significant thing is feeling, as such, quite apart from the environment in which it is called forth.
