Wassily Kandinsky

Wassily Kandinsky, King of Kaleidoscopic Kompositions, pioneered abstract art. His style shatters recognizable forms, focusing instead on the emotive power of color, line, and shape. Think vibrant, swirling symphonies on canvas!

Key Characteristics:

• Abstraction: Complete abandonment of representational imagery.
• Color as Emotion: Intense, saturated hues used to evoke specific feelings.
• Spiritual in Art: Kandinsky believed art could tap into a higher spiritual realm.
• Geometric and Organic Shapes: Playful interactions between circles, triangles, lines, and free-flowing forms.
• Musicality: Titles often reference music (e.g., "Composition," "Improvisation") as he sought to create visual equivalents of sound.

Themes: Inner necessity, spirituality, emotional expression, the power of non-objective forms.
