4.0 out of 5 stars
An underrated figure in modern art, November 19, 2010
This review is from: Kandinsky: Watercolours and Other Works on Paper (Painters & Sculptors) (Hardcover)
I got this book just to view the prints and that is about all it is worth. Vasily Kandinsky's work would have been greatly appreicated if he live in Paris in the 1920's. He bounced from Russia to Germany and finally to Paris. At all his stops he was hounded for his theories on what Modern Art should be. If you are going to buy this book, buy it only to view the watercolors, because that is the feature. There is some biography, but there is nothing on his theories. To see something like Small Worlds IV and realize it was done in 1922 is to see how far ahead of his time he was and what an influence he would become. Buy the book only to view the watercolors.
