Scope and Contents
Finlay (Archive entry) indicates that suprematist crosses of Malevich appear to him as abstracted early airplanes and suggests that an image from "Malevich's book" looks like an aerial dogfight. He adds a black cross to the picture with fire from its side to suggest that an enemy plane shot down by the red colored cross-airplane image of Malevich, "ace" of the avant garde. The suprematist elements are given a chalky surface as if colored with crayons. The trade edition of print was unsigned. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
