Geometric abstractionism is the direction of non-figurative art, where different geometric shapes, color planes and lines are combined.

      In the 1950s, Russian non-conformists got interested in objectless art and geometric abstractionism in particular. Artists studied paintings by masters and followers of the Russian avant-garde, got acquainted with the stored collections of the Tretyakov Gallery, and studied Western magazines.
