This book, published on the occasion of an exhibition taking place from June 2022 at the Musée de Vézelay in collaboration with the Centre Pompidou, analyzes Wassily Kandinsky’s major eponymous work, a biomorphic monochrome painting that provides the exhibition with its central theme: the alternation of black and white, and pays tribute to his friendly and professional relationship with Christian Zervos.
Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944) was a Russian painter, naturalized German and then French.
Considered one of the most important painters of the 20th century, he is often credited with creating the first abstract artwork of the modern era. Kandinsky’s fame is linked to his gradual rejection over a few years of any figurative element in his painting.
