    So put briefly they are both abstract art movements from Russia in the first quarter of the 20th century. Supremtism, pioneered by Malevich, used paintings of geometric objects such as squares and rectangles to create the first works of "supreme" feeling divorced from reality. Constructivism, on the other hand, used various art forms such as sculpture to literally "construct", usually in 3-D, similarly abstract works.
