Kazimir Malevich - Black Rectangle, Red Square

Black Square and Red Square were created in 1915 during World War I and were originally intended to have no meaning. Malevich's work has often been called the "zero point" of painting by historians and critics, referring to the historical significance of the picture and paraphrasing Malevich. The painting was sold for a record sum of $60 million. © Fine Art Images - ARTOTHEK
