Wassily Kandinsky

Wassily Kandinsky on the WWW






 
Kandinsky, Wassily (1866-1944), Russian painter, whose exploration of the possibilities of abstraction make him one of the most important innovators in modern art. Both as an artist and as a theorist he played a pivotal role in the development of abstract art. Along with Franz Marc and other German expressionists, Kandinsky formed Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider) group. As one of the first explorers of the principles of "pure" abstraction, Kandinsky can be considered an artist who paved the way for abstract expressionism, the dominant school of painting since World War II. Kandinsky died in Neuilly-sur-Seine, a suburb of Paris, on December 13, 1944.
