Kazimir Malevich: Boy with Knapsack

Kazimir Malevich: Painterly Realism. Boy with Knapsack – Color Masses in the Fourth Dimension. (1915)

This piece of art has fascinated me ever since I found it. I find it incredibly beautiful in its extreme simpleness.

    Whenever I see artwork like that, I always think of the artist who is thinking “idiots” to the people buying his “art”. Art is in the mind of the beholder, and I like my artwork more complicated.

    Just my kind of picture. I love looking at boys with knapsacks. Keep it up!

    Sometimes bullshit will get you further than talent.

    Bello. Forse il mio (nostro) interesse per la bellezza apollinea di un fanciullo, per l’opera di Will McBride o per il costruttivismo russo, per la Natura e per l’Universo, trova un intimo, profondo, arcaico comune sentimento nella ricerca di una forma pura, di una buona forma, d’una “gestalt” che ci appartiene e di cui siamo parte.
