1. Wassily Kandinsky, 1866 1944
This concise study traces the artist’s life and career from his Russian roots through his Munich training, Bauhaus leadership and final years in France, linking biographical events to shifts in his painting. It analyzes his move from representational to abstract work, his theoretical writings on color, form and the spiritual dimension of art, and the idea of visual music that informed his palette and compositions. The book closely examines key paintings and stylistic phases, situating them within the broader context of early 20th-century modernism and assessing his lasting influence on abstract art.
