Kazimir Malevich: The Black Square (Story of a Masterpiece)

In 2015, Irina Vakar, senior research scientist at Tretyakov Gallery, reexamined Kazimir Malevich’s Black Square (1915) through X-ray imaging and pigment samples. Reconsidering Malevich’s complete oeuvre, this book builds upon her work, particularly considering the connection between Black Square and Malevich’s theater experiments.
