Handy new edition of Vasily Kandinsky's seminal treatise which was hugely influential in the development of abstract painting.
This slim but powerful text is required reading for anyone interested in the history of 20th century art. The book, which Kandinsky claimed had been gestating for nearly a decade, elucidates his artistic theories and his valuing of expression and spirituality over naturalistic representation. With reference to and analysis of earlier masters such as Picasso and Matisse, Kandinsky calls for a spiritual revolution in painting in which artists to express their lives in abstract terms. The treatise also delves deeper into the psychology of colours, the language of form and the responsibilities of the artist.
Wassily Kandinsky, (1866-1944) was a Russian painter, graphic artist and art theorist, considered the greatest pioneer of abstraction in Western art.
