The print is over 60 years old, in very good condition over all, and is a full color Photo-Offset print. One of the pioneers of abstract modern art, Wassily Kandinsky exploited the evocative interrelation between color and form to create an aesthetic experience that engaged the sight, sound, and emotions of the public. He believed that total abstraction offered the possibility for profound, transcendental expression and that copying from nature only interfered with this process. Highly inspired to create art that communicated a universal sense of spirituality, he innovated a pictorial language that only loosely related to the outside world, but expressed volumes about the artist's inner experience. His visual vocabulary developed through three phases, shifting from his early, representational canvases and their divine symbolism to his rapturous and operatic compositions, to his late, geometric and biomorphic flat planes of color. Kandinsky's art and ideas inspired many generations of artists, from his students at the Bauhaus to the Abstract Expressionists after World War II. Abstract art, modern art, painting, avant-garde, dadaism, cubism, surrealism, fauvism, de stilj, geometric art. About the Printer:In 1830 Mathaeus Smeets started a printing company in Weert with their first hand press. Five generations of Smeets then brought the company to great prosperity and the printing company became an innovative and internationally operating company. In the 1970s, the company had a workforce of more than 1200 employees.The printing company was sold to VNU in 1968 and was no longer a family business.The company was usually called "Drukkerij Smeets" in Weert, but in the course of its history it had various names such as Emmanuel Smeets, Smeets Offset, Koninklijke Smeets Offset and Roto Smeets Weert.LOC: A9-FStoreAdd to FavoritesFeedbackWASSILY KANDINSKY BOOKPLATE PRINT ABSTRACT Modern Art 1962 BAUHAUS SYMBOLISM WASSILY KANDINSKY DEVELOPMENT IN BROWN (1933) Bookplate Print on sheet that measures approx. 9 3/8" x 10-5/8".
