Now on view: “Vasily Kandinsky: Around the Circle” ⚫️ ⠀ Through his paintings, watercolors, and woodcuts, Vasily Kandinsky mined the expressive and spiritual possibilities of color, line and form. ⠀ The works featured in “Around the Circle” are drawn from the Guggenheim’s extensive Kandinsky collection, and illuminate the journey of an artist who would not leave behind the precedents of representation or of his own work altogether, even as he explored the transcendent potential of abstract forms

Wassily Kandinsky (1866 – 1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist. He is credited with painting one of the first purely abstract works. #kandinsky#abstract#russian#art #arthistory | Art Post
