Rayonism

“Rayonism: A Russian movement, a short-lived offshoot of Cubism and a parallel to Futurism, started in 1913 by Mikhail Larionov and Natalia Goncharova. Their emphasis on rendering parallel and crossed beams of light to suggest the fourth dimension was important to the development of Suprematism.”
