Kazimir Malevich, Suprematism: Airplane Flying, 1915 and Barnett Newman, Via Heroicus Sublimus, 1950-51
Kazimir Malevich’s Airplane Flying is oil on canvas artwork composed of simple rectangular forms placed on white background. The composition was Malevich’s idea of freeing “art from the burden of the object” (Nici 400). Barnett Newman’s Via Heroicus Sublimus is a painting that can simply be translated as ‘man, heroic, and sublime. Newman wants the viewer to stand close to this painting and have a feeling that he/she is encountering another human being. Malevich placed the shapes in dynamic relationship to one another. Malevich has used the pure language of shape and color. Both Via Heroicus Sublimus and Airplane Flying have differences regarding representation, color and space, composition, surface pattern, and use of line, and they also have a different message that they are trying to communicate to their viewers.
Malevich was a Russian painter and sculptor who existed during the Suprematism Movement. He was born in 1879 and died in 1935. Under this development, its supporters did not put any intending to the visual marvels of the target world as Malevich depicted through his work. The significant thing was feeling (Kleiner 859). On the contrary, Newman makes the visual phenomena meaningful via his painting. Newman creates a large painting portraying the social space.
