Wassily Kandinsky. Concerning the Spiritual in Art

Handy new edition of Vasily Kandinsky's seminal treatise which was hugely influential in the development of abstract painting. Vasily Kandinsky's "Über das Geistige in der Kunst" (Concerning the Spiritual in Art) is considered his major theoretical work and sparked widespread interest in abstraction in the years leading up to World War I. The book, which he claimed had been gestating for nearly a decade, elucidated his artistic theories and his valuing of expression and spirituality over naturalistic representation.
