In the early 20th century, the Russian artist Kazimir Malevich painted his seminal work, The Black Square. This painting launched the abstract art movement in which all representational forms from the natural world, such as birds, were deliberately obscured from view. Strolling through modern art galleries, Michael King tried to imagine how the paintings would change if the birds could reappear from their captivity. He uses photomontage in this book to allow the birds to escape the rigid confines of abstract paintings.
