Description

Published in association with The Malevich Society, this is the first authoritative English edition of the landmark work of scholarship on abstract artist Kazimir Malevich's correspondence and writings. A compilation and scholarly investigation of all primary sources for his life and work, the volumes include the artist's autobiographies, more than 270 of his letters to various correspondents, archival documents and memoirs of contemporaries, as well as critical responses to his work. Many of these documents are published for the first time.
The books are illustrated with over 400 photographs, mostly rare, portraying Kazimir Malevich, his family, friends and colleagues. These volumes are the product of more than ten years of work of two renowned Russian scholars, Irina Vakar and Tatiana Mikhienko, who have thoroughly annotated the material.
