More about this artwork

"Impression III (Concert)" by Wassily Kandinsky is an abstract painting that vividly captures the essence and dynamism of a musical performance. Created in 1911, this painting showcases Kandinsky's early transition towards pure abstraction.In this composition, Kandinsky uses bold, vivid colors and dynamic, somewhat amorphous shapes to convey the emotional and sensory impressions of a concert, rather than a literal representation. The bright swathes of yellow dominate the canvas, perhaps suggesting the overwhelming sensory input or the powerful auditory experience of music. This is contrasted by deep blacks and bright reds, possibly symbolizing the varying intensities and pitches of the music.A sweeping black curve on the right might suggest the movement of a conductor's baton, or the flow of musical notes across the space. Splashes of white and blue add depth and balance, indicating a harmony among the chaos, much like the different instruments contributing to a symphony.This painting is an excellent example of how Kandinsky began to express music through visual art, achieving an immersive experience that attempts to convey sound through color and shape. His work not only captures the emotional resonance of the musical performance but also his own inner responses to it, inviting viewers to experience his personal impressionistic interpretation of the concert.

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.
