“I could do that!” This is a common phrase heard from people gazing at paintings by Kazimir Malevich. The reactions to Suprematism itself – from ridicule to rage, from shock to contemplation – are now interactive rituals of sorts, and just as much a part of the show as the exhibited paintings themselves. However, the thinking art lover will urge you to take a closer look at something that seems very simple on the surface. Watch Russian Travel Guide’s film on the founding father of Suprematism – Kazimir Malevich: Creator of New Worlds.

Staraya Ladoga. The First Capital of Ancient Rus
“The Russian people in its multitude like the countless stars of the sky is unique.” These are the words of the Polish theologian Matvei Krakovsky spoken back in the 15th century. The subsequent centuries have done nothing to diminish the scale of his statement. They have multiplied and redrawn the borders of the Russian lands, and the poetic description of the population is matched by the statistics. Today, Russia is the largest country in the world. There are few blank spaces on its map today, but there are many questions still to be answered about its history. One of them is “Where did the Russian lands begin?” Even the old chronicles differ in their views on this. Increasingly, however, historians believe that the roots of the Russian state can be traced back to Staraya Ladoga. Discover an old town that is regarded as the first capital of Ancient Rus in a film by RTG TV.
