ART WALK Series - Improvisation (PRE-ORDER)

Sold Out $37.00

The twentieth offering in our new ART WALK Series features a painting by Wassily Kandinsky entitled "Improvisation". From one medium to the next, artists express their use of colour. Inspired by Kandinsky, our dyer has successfully captured the excitement and complexity of the painting.

Wassily Kandinsky (1886 - 1944) is considered to be the originator of abstract art, and believed that art could visually express musical compositions. Kandinsky, who was also an accomplished musician, saw color when he heard music, and associated a color’s tone with musical timbre, hue with pitch, and saturation with the volume of sound. Music influenced his art to such a degree that Kandinsky named his works after musical terms. Originally a lawyer in his native Russia, he was inspired to study art at age 30, after seeing Monet’s “Haystacks.” Kandinsky was gripped by a compulsion to relentlessly create, and believed that if this drive were pure, it would evoke a correspondingly powerful response in viewers of his work.
