Dominant Curve by Wassily Kandinsky Size:S - 29.7 x 42cm (A3)

Dominant Curve by Wassily Kandinsky Size:S - 29.7 x 42cm (A3)Dominant Curve, painted by Wassily Kandinsky in 1936, is a late career statement from one of abstraction's founding voices. The composition balances bold arcs against scattered geometric forms in a palette that moves from warm ochres and reds to cool blues and blacks a visual score as much as a painting. Kandinsky believed colour and form could function like music, triggering emotion directly, without the mediation of representation. Dominant Curve
