He studied Plastic Arts in Vitebsk, where he had Malevich as his teacher, and became one of his most outstanding disciples. Later he went him him and all his group to the Inchuk in Petrograd where he worked in the Lomonosov porcelain factory. With Suetin he planned the working class residential area of the Bolshevik factory in that city and he was closely linked to all the group of painters who made up the *Russian avant-gardes*; he was a founder member of the UNOVIS, whose initial programme contemplated the need to create new forms that would allow the construction of a new society. He dedicated the whole of his short life to this search, as is reflected both in his pictorial production and his theoretical reflections on Suprematist painting.
