Kandinsky and Music
"The term "Composition" can imply a metaphor with music. Kandinsky was fascinated by music's emotional power. Because music expresses itself through sound and time, it allows the listener a freedom of imagination, interpretation, and emotional response that is not based on the literal or the descriptive, but rather on the abstract quality that painting, still dependent on representing the visible world, could not provide. "Kandinsky's special understanding of the affinities between painting and music and his belief in the Gesamtkunstwerk , or the total work of art, came forth in his text "On Stage Composition," his play "Yellow Sound," and his portfolio of prose poems and prints Klange Sounds , 1913). Music can respond and appeal directly to the artist's "internal element" and express spiritual values, thus for Kandinsky it is a more advanced art. In his writings Kandinsky emphasizes this superiority in advancing toward what he calls the epoch of the great spiritual.

"Technically, every work of art comes into being in the same way as the cosmos - by means of catastrophes, which ultimately create out of the cacophony of the various instruments that symphony we call the music of the spheres. The creation of the work of art is the creation of the world." Wassily Kandinsky. Wassily Kandinsky was born in Moscow where he studied economics, law and ethnography there. In 1889, upon receiving a commission by the Russian Imperial Society of Friends of Natural History, Anthropology and Ethnography, Kandinsky embarked on a solo expedition to the remote Vologda province where he was impressed by native folk art. After being deeply moved by Monet's 'Haystack' in 1896, he moved to Munich to study painting. From 1901 to 1904, Kandinsky was heavily involved in the Phalanx exhibition society. After this he lived in a number of locations around Europe. In 1909 Kandinsky began what was to be his most powerful and ambitious project entitled 'Compositions'. The first seven were produced between 1909 and 1913 and the

  • But, as well as the body, the spirit fortifies itself and develops itself by the exercise. As a neglected body which becomes weak and finally impotent, the spirit becomes weaker. The innate feeling of the artist is like the talent of the Gospel which must not be buried. The artist which lets its gifts unemployed is the lazy servant.

Wassily Kandinsky
W assily Kandinsky was born in Moscow, on December 4th, 1866. His parents both played piano, so he was encouraged to learn how to read and play music at an early age. Young Kandinsky played cello and piano, and even though we know him best as a painter, music has always been the main inspiration behind his work. When he was only 5 years old,, his parents divorced, so he moved in with his aunt in Odessa, continuing to play music, and learning to paint; but the gifted young man did not choose to study art or music when he later enrolled at Moscow University, choosing instead the "safer" fields of Economics, Politics, and Law. During his years at the university, Kandinsky explore spirituality through writing. He also taught at the Moscow Faculty of Law. For Kandinsky, the arts were no more than a hobby. It wasn't until 1896 that Kandinsky decided to seriously study art. The sudden change in his life had been triggered by his interest in the work of

Wassily Kandinsky Wassily Kandinsky was born in Moscow. He studied law and economics and developed and interest in the Fine Arts as a hobby. After graduation from law school in 1895, he decided not to pusue his law degree and instead studied painting in Munich. Kandinsky's interest in all art forms was nurtured by the artistic environment in Munich where he recalled "everyone painted-or wrote poems, or made music, or took up dancing-in every house one found at least two ateliers under the roof..." He began his studies in the art school of Anton Azbe but transferred to the Munich Akademie in 1900 to study under Franz von Stuck, the president of the Munich Secession. In 1901, he founded Phalanx which became a forum for the arts and crafts movement. Ist eleventh show was devoted entirely to graphic work.
Kandinsky considered his graphic oeuvre, especially his woodcuts, an important part of his artistic activities. He was initially influenced by the woodcut illustrations of William Nicholson and Felix Valloton as well as the tradition of Eastern European popular illustration and Munich's own considerable graphic tradition. Between 1902-04, Kandinsky completed nearly 50 woodcuts. Compositions executed in one medium, such as his color drawings, were often translated into woodcuts. In 1904, he published "Gedichte ohne Worte" (Poems without Words) a portfolio of woodcuts which demonstrated his unique mixture of Jugendstil and Symbolist influences. The simplification of line inherent in the woodcut medium forced the artist to analyze the essential elements of the design. They played a vital role in the development of his style which blended ornament and abstraction.
