Quotes

"The reality in art is the sensational effect of colour itself" [1913]

"The representation of an object, in itself (the objectivity as 
 the aim of the representation), is something that has nothing
 to do with art, although the use of representation in a work
 of art does not rule out the possibily of its being of a high 
 artistic order. For the suprematist, therefore, the
 proper means is the one that provides the fullest expression 
 of pure feeling and ignores the habitually accepted object.
 The object in itself is meaningless to him; and the ideas of the
 consious mind are worthless. Feeling is the decisive factor,
 and thus art arrives at non-objective representation: It
 arrives at suprematism." [1927]
