Vassily Kandinsky peignant "Courbe dominante" en 1936. . Disparu en 1944, Kandinsky est né en Russie en 1866. Il est reconnu comme étant l’auteur de la première œuvre d’art non-figurative. À partir des années 1910, il est ainsi le créateur de nombreuses compositions abstraites basées sur l’utilisation de formes colorées et rythmées. . Kandinsky est sans aucun doute un des plus grands théoriciens de l’art moderne. Son essai le plus connu et le plus révolutionnaire, "Du spirituel dans l’Art et dans la peinture en particulier", écrit en 1910 une référence étudiée en école d’Art. Il y traite longuement des couleurs et de leurs propriétés sur la psychologie humaines, ainsi que de la nature même de l’Art, dont le rôle est, selon lui, d’élever spirituellement l’humanité. . Son second traité, "Point et ligne sur plan", est publié en 1925 alors qu’il enseigne au Bauhaus. Le peintre s’est aussi illustré dans le domaine de la poésie "Klänge", ainsi que du théâtre, dans de courtes pièces dans lesquelles il mettait en application sa volonté de synthèse des arts. . Aimé Maeght avait conscience que l'œuvre de Kandinsky était ni assez montrée ni reconnue à sa juste place. Dès l'ouverture de sa galerie et pendant presque 20 ans, mon grand-père programme des expositions où l'œuvre est chronologiquement découpée, expliquée, montrée. Échecs commerciaux successifs, mais Aimé n'en a que faire, il veut faire ce véritable travail de musée, préfigurant sans doute ce que sera la Fondation Maeght.

Study for Improvisation V, Vassily Kandinsky, 1910, Minneapolis Institute of Art: Paintings

This landscape evokes Biblical stories of the Apocalypse, which foretold Christ's second coming. In the foreground, a woman in blue kneels before a tall figure with streaming golden hair, possibly Christ, while in the background two horsemen of the Apocalypse vault a fence. As a pioneer of abstract painting, Vassily Kandinsky thought art could make inner truths visible. An "improvisation," he said, was "a largely unconscious, spontaneous expression of inner character," or "non-material (i.e., spiritual) nature." Kandinsky wanted painting to function like music, using colors and forms like melodies and rhythms—abstractly—to summon emotion. Frame: Gift of Galerie Thomas, Munich, Germany. Size: 27 5/8 x 27 1/2in. (70.2 x 69.9cm) 41 1/2 × 42 × 2 1/4 in. (105.41 × 106.68 × 5.72 cm) (outer frame) Medium: Oil on pulp board
