Kazimir Malevich’s Malers’ Brigade

Also known as: Malevich’s Brigade, Malers’ Brigade / Бригада малеров имени Казимира Малевича, БМимКМ

Collective Action

Kazimir Malevich’s Malers’ Brigade is an open artistic collective founded in Yekaterinburg in 2004. Its members maintain their own artistic practices, but within the Brigade they become a different kind of collective subject: ideas are developed and decisions are made together. The Brigade works through performances, happenings, exhibitions, videos and interventions in existing spaces, often using ordinary materials and situations as starting points for action.

“Each of us is an individualist in our artistic practice. But within the Brigade, we become a single organism.”
