Vasily Kandinsky
Vasily Kandinsky was one of the principal founders of abstract painting, perhaps the most revolutionary development in 20th-century art. In this collection, Messer has selected notable paintings, reproduced as colour plates, from every period of Kandinsky's career. The early years are documented in images such as the mythological Riding Couple from the heroic period of his work. In the years before World War I, he made a breakthrough into highly expressionistic abstract paintings such as Composition VI, often regarded as among his highest achievements. Paintings given by his widow to the Musee National d'Art Moderne in Paris are also included, among them the valedictory Tempered Elan.
