Vasily Kandinsky. Around the Circle

Exposición 8 de octubre 2021 − 5 de septiembre 2022

Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum presents an exhibition of the greatest artistic innovator and theorist of painting Wassily Kandinsky's "Around the Circle".

The exhibition features paintings, watercolors, and prints by the master, highlighting the artist's creative journey. Kandinsky's work "unfolds" in reverse chronological order, beginning with his late paintings and moving up the spiral ramp of the Guggenheim Museum.

In the first decades of the twentieth century, Kandinsky was among those who promoted non-representational ways of creating art for lasting effect. The artist's stylistic evolution in this regard was closely linked to his sense of place and the communities with which he worked. Again and again he adapted to each move through Germany, back to Russia and eventually to France, all against the backdrop of the social and political upheaval going on around him.
