Di cosa parla

Abstract art emerged as a significant movement in the early 20th century, represented by artists like Vasilij Kandinskij, who sought to create a new language of forms, colors, and lines that transcended visible reality.
Kandinskij's paintings, such as "St. George," incorporate traditional stories but interpret them through an abstract lens, blending elements from past art with his innovative approach; he also wrote books like "Point and Line to Plane" to explain this new language, drawing connections between visual forms and music.
The origin of Kandinskij's abstract language is traced back to the way children paint, which is seen as a primitive yet original form of expression. His paintings from 1917, like "Picture with White Border," demonstrate how he uses abstraction to represent familiar stories in a new way, emphasizing the white border and geometric shapes over traditional realism.
Kandinskij's work reflects his cultural background, particularly through the use of white as a symbol of all colors and the influence of Russian religious icons. His paintings often depict cities like Moscow, but abstractly, highlighting the complexity of space and form.
