Punkt und Linie zu Fläche
Kandinsky besaß eine außergewöhnliche bildnerische Intelligenz und hatte ein ausgeprägtes Empfinden für Farbe und Form. - "Der Punkt ist Urelement, Befruchtung der leeren Fläche. Die Horizontale ist kalte, tragende Basis, schweigend und 'schwarz'. Die Vertikale ist aktiv, warm, 'weiß'. Die freien Geraden sind beweglich, 'blau' und 'gelb'. Die Fläche selbst ist unten schwer, oben leicht, links wie 'Ferne', rechts wie 'Haus'." – Wassily Punkt und Linie zu Fläche (1926) Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944) war ein russischer Maler, Grafiker und Kunsttheoretiker, der auch in Deutschland und Frankreich lebte und wirkte. Kandinsky war ein Künstler des Expressionismus und einer der Wegbereiter der abstrakten Kunst. Er wird häufig nach eigenen Angaben als Schöpfer des ersten abstrakten Bildes der Welt genannt.
