Cubism is "the art of painting new compositions by means of elements taken from atainable - rather than visual - reality." (G. Apollinaire) . Suprematism represents a logical continuation of Cubism in its striving to give substance to the new non-objective cosmic concept of a spatially integrated world and its structural unity. "I have destroyed the ring of the horizon and stepped out of the circle of things " (Malevich). The constructivists in 1920 regarded Suprematism as an intermediate stage on the way to Constructivism, which derived much of its treatment of space from Malevich's system. Constructivism is the organisation of the given material on the principles of tectonics, structure and construction, the form being defined in the process of creation by the utilitarian aim of the object. (LEF, 1923)
Larissa Zhadova - Malevich, suprematism and revolution in russian art, 1910-1930.

"The concept of Constructivism arose from Russia. It is applied to an art that utilizes modern structural components instead ofthe usual materials, and pursues constructional aims..."( Hans Richter)
