The great Russian modernist painter and theorist Wassily Kandinsky was one of the pioneers of abstraction in Western art.
Few documents provide more insight into his evolution from figural to abstract art—or into the development of abstraction in the early 20th century—than the pages of his sketchbooks.
Featuring previously unpublished drawings, “Wassily Kandinsky: The Sketchbooks” is a comprehensive selection of hundreds of sketches from 12 notebooks Kandinsky kept between 1889 and 1935.
