Résumé
One of the foremost artistic innovators active in Russia, Germany, and France during the tumultuous first half of the twentieth century, Vasily Kandinsky(1866-1944) sought to liberate painting from its ties to the natural world and express the spiritual in art. Looking at Kandinsky anew, this publication recontextualizes the artist's vibrant work and life in a series of multidisciplinary essays that span a groundbreaking career.
Unexpected aspects of Kandinsky's creative and philosophical inquiry are investigated : his nuanced relationships with the avant-garde artistic communities in which he lived and made art ; the influence of anarchism and radical ecology ; experimental methods of improvisation exploring the interplay between sight and sound ; his place among Bauhaus peers whose contributions have been under-recognized ; and his return, toward the end of his life, to long-held cultural interests that date back to his early years in Russia.
An illustrated chronology details Kandinsky's life in an era that saw multiple revolutions and two world wars. Highlighting more than ninety paintings, watercolors, drawings, and woodcuts from the Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation's preeminent Kandinsky holdings, this volume brings the artist and his work full circle.
