More about this artwork

"Improvisation Flood" (1914) by Wassily Kandinsky is a vibrant and dynamic painting, characteristic of his explorations into abstraction which he believed was a portal to spiritual reality. The work is a maelstrom of colors and forms, swirling around the canvas in a way that appears almost chaotic, yet somehow balanced.The colors used are vivid and contrast sharply with darker tones, creating a sense of depth and motion. This juxtaposition of light and dark suggests tumult and intense emotional or natural upheaval, resonant with the idea of a 'flood'. Abstract forms and lines intersect and overlap, directing the viewer's eye across the canvas in sweeping motions.At first glance, it's difficult to pick out specific figures or objects because the subjects are deconstructed to the point where they transcend literal interpretation. Instead, one sees shapes that could be interpreted in multiple ways, perhaps as waves, figures, or fragments of an environment in disarray.The painting does not just portray a physical flood, but seems to reach into the psychological and emotional resonance of such a disaster, capturing an essence of disruption, fluidity, and a break from the static normatively perceived reality.

Wassily Wassilyevich Kandinsky was a Russian painter and art theorist. Kandinsky is generally credited as the pioneer of abstract art. Born in Moscow, Kandinsky spent his childhood in Odessa, where he graduated at Grekov Odessa Art school. He enrolled at the University of Moscow, studying law and economics. Successful in his profession—he was offered a professorship (chair of Roman Law) at the University of Dorpat today Tartu, Estonia)—Kandinsky began painting studies (life-drawing, sketching and anatomy) at the age of 30.
