Cubo-Futurism
Kazimir Malevich, The Knife Grinder (Principle of Glittering), 1913, oil on canvas, 79.5 x 79.5 cm, Yale University Art Gallery
Cubo-Futurism was the main school of painting and sculpture practiced by the Russian Futurists.
When Aristarkh Lentulov returned from Paris in 1913 and exhibited his works in Moscow, the Russian Futurist painters adopted the forms of Cubism and combined them with the Italian Futurists' representation of movement. Kazimir Malevich developed the style, which can be seen in his The Knife Grinder (signed 1912, painted 1913), though he later abandoned it for Suprematism.

- Alexander Archipenko
