# Black square

Ольга Слободкина

Black Square...

What is it?

Nothing?

Yes, nothing.

Or everything?

Black absorbs

the entire spectrum of colors

A lapse into Oblivion

Depression

Rupture

War


The innovation is that Malevich had the

courage?

intelligence?

to imagine and display the Black Square

as an object of art


By his own philosophy?

carelessness?


And we are left to speculate

ad infinitum...
