Wassily Kandinsky (Russian, 1866–1944)
Improvisation No. 5
Lithograph, 1911A rare lithograph after Wassily Kandinsky, Improvisation No. 5, signed and dated the lower right. Measuring 15 x 22 in. (sheet), with frame 26 1/2 x 32 1/2 in., the work exemplifies Kandinsky’s revolutionary shift toward abstraction, emphasizing spontaneous form and color to evoke the rhythms of music and emotion. Executed in 1911, the year Kandinsky co-founded the Der Blaue Reiter group, this piece reflects his earliest explorations of purely non-objective composition, which would define his legacy as one of the pioneers of abstract art.
Dimensions: Image: 15 x 22 in. | With frame: 26 1/2 x 32 1/2 in.
Condition: Overall good; light age toning and surface wear consistent with age, frame shows handling wear.Artist Bio
Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) was a Russian-born painter and theorist, widely regarded as one of the founders of abstract art. A co-founder of the Der Blaue Reiter movement in Munich, Kandinsky believed that painting, like music, could evoke spiritual and emotional resonance without representing the physical world. His Improvisations, produced from 1909 onward, marked a radical departure from figurative art, employing color and form as vehicles for inner expression. Kandinsky later taught at the Bauhaus, influencing generations of modern artists. His works today are held in major museums worldwide, including the Centre Pompidou, MoMA, and the Guggenheim.Have a similar item to sell?
