The Legacy of the Suprematist Square for a Sensing Pedagogy: A Non-Objective Creative Contemplation for Education
White, E. Jayne; Gradovski, Mikhail
Educational Philosophy and Theory, v53 n7 p740-748 2021
While Kazimir Malevich is widely known for his suprematist contributions to art, little attention has been granted to his articulated philosophical premise and methodological manifestation concerning the non-objectivity of thought and its relationship to feeling. This paper shows how Suprematist philosophy gives rise to the concept of pedagogical sensing that was first characterized by UNOVIS. Casting Suprematist aspersions on dominant educational practices that seek to reproduce what seemingly 'is', a non-objective collapse of all-too-certain frames is replaced by abstract essence. As with the painter, teachers may be correspondingly invited to represent learning without past prejudice, as a creative contemplation in constituted spaces comprised of thoughts and feelings, that are so beautifully manifested through Malevich's pieces of art and his associated, hitherto unrecognized, suprematist call to arms in education.
