Description

Music has rarely played such an important role in the work of a painter as it did with Wassily Kandinsky.

For the first time, the Musée de la Musique - Philharmonie de Paris and the Centre Pompidou are joining forces to reveal the fundamental role of music in his daily life, in his vocation as an artist, and in the evolution of his practice towards abstraction. From the first Russian landscapes of his youth to his teachings at the Bauhaus, from his discovery of Richard Wagner in 1896 in Moscow to the revolutionary atonal compositions of Arnold Schoenberg, which he heard in 1911 in Munich, music is an essential key to appreciating Kandinsky's work.

This richly illustrated catalog offers a collection of texts that shed new light on the painter's listening horizons, his music-loving style, his musical friendships, his reflections and experiments on synesthesia and the synthesis of the arts.
