What is "Cubo-Futurism"?
Cubo-Futurism was an art movement that began in Russia in the early 20th century, combining elements of Cubism, which focused on breaking down objects into geometric shapes, and Futurism, which emphasized speed and movement. Artists in this movement, such as Kazimir Malevich and Natalia Goncharova, aimed to represent the liveliness and energy of modern life by breaking down objects into geometric shapes and showing them in motion. Cubo-Futurism emphasized bold colors, broken forms, and a sense of speed and movement, reflecting the quick growth of cities and advances in technology at the time. The movement had a significant role in the development of Russian modern art, mixing abstract forms with a focus on the future and progress.
