„Minden, amit mi természetnek nevezünk, csupán fantáziakép.” A szuprematizmus és a kanti fenséges kapcsolatáról
“Everything which We Call Nature, in the Last Analysis, Is a Figment of the Imagination”. About the Relationship between Suprematism and the Kantian Sublime

Summary/Abstract: In my paper, I intend to point out to what extent the assumption that there is a close relationship between the Kantian sublime and Malevich’s suprematist painting can be considered legitimate. Academic literature available on the subject does not reach a uniform consensus on the issue, since for example, Jean-François Lyotard thinks that modern art emerged from the aesthetics of the sublime, so in the end, Malevich’s white square on a white background is the negative representation of the otherwise unpresentable infinity; meanwhile, Branislav Jakovljevic thinks that Malevich’s suprematism has nothing to do with the expression of the unspeakable or the sublime.
