I will present how his means of expression and style changed with time, making references to his work, history and cultural context. First, I will explain the principles of avant-garde and modernism, and show painter's background. Secondly, I will research on the beginnings of his work, and how he came to suprematism.

The Underground Man’s true self may be shrouded by mystery, but it is clear that he is either telling us that he lives in all of us through our experiences with alienation, or that if we were anywhere near as self-aware as he is
