This book presents an outstanding overview of the works of Vassily Kandinsky, 'the father of modern abstract art'. Born in Russia in 1866, Vassily Kandinsky was a painter, printmaker, and art theorist. Although he didn't begin to paint seriously until the age of 30, his unique style has made him one of the most recognisable and best-loved artists of the 20th century, he is also credited with painting the first modern abstract works. This lavishly illustrated volume presents readers with a superb overview of Kandinsky's entire oeuvre - from his early landscape pieces, such as "The Blue Rider" (1903), through his Bauhaus period, and on to his abstract period.
