Realistic to Abstract
Picture with Archer 1909
Kandinskys earliest paintings were quite realistic. Then he moved into a style similar to that of the Impressionists before he began creating completely abstract paintings.
He Preferred Abstract
Gradually, Kandinskys work became more abstract.
He began to paint objects as patches of color instead of painting perfect details such as facial features or individual leaves on trees.
Kandinskys Legacy
Kandinsky was trying to create the same effect on a viewer of his paintings as a beautiful piece of music has on a listener. Kandinsky Died December 13, 1944 in France Kandinskys ideas about art are possibly more important than even the paintings he created. He wrote three books about his ideas.
What's left in art when you take away anything that looks like something? Kandinsky did it---leaving color, line, shapes, and angles!
