Point and Line to Plane by Wassily Kandinsky
Requirements: ePUB Reader, 6MB
Overview: “I had the impression that here painting itself comes to the foreground; I wondered if it would not be possible to go further in this direction.”
Thus did the young Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) react to his first viewing of Monet’s Haystack, included in an 1895 Moscow exhibit of French Impressionists. It was his first perception of the dematerialization of an object and presaged the later development of his influential theories of non-objective art.
During study and travel in Europe, the young artist breathed the heady atmosphere of artistic experimentation. Fauvism, Cubism, Symbolism, and other movements played an important role in the development of his own revolutionary approach to painting. Decrying literal representation, Kandinsky emphasized instead the importance of form, color, rhythm, and the artist’s inner need in expressing reality.
