Wassily Wassilyevich Kandinsky (, Vasiliy Vasil ’ yevich Kandinskiy, ; – 13 December 1944 ) was an influential Russian painter and art theorist.

For the most part, however, Kandinsky's paintings did not feature any human figures ; an exception is Sunday, Old Russia ( 1904 ), in which Kandinsky recreates a highly colourful ( and fanciful ) view of peasants and nobles in front of the walls of a town.

This intentional disjunction, allowing viewers to participate in the creation of the artwork, became an increasingly conscious technique used by Kandinsky in subsequent years ; it culminated in the abstract works of the 1911 – 1914 period.

Kandinsky sometimes used musical terms to identify his works ; he called his most spontaneous paintings " improvisations " and described more elaborate works as " compositions.

In addition to painting, Kandinsky was an art theorist ; his influence on the history of Western art stems perhaps more from his theoretical works than from his paintings.

Kandinsky had received some notice earlier in Britain, however ; in 1910, he participated in the Allied Artists ' Exhibition ( organised by Frank Rutter ) at London's Royal Albert Hall.

Sadleir's interest in Kandinsky also led to Kandinsky's first works entering a British art collection ; Sadleir's father, Michael Sadler, acquired several woodprints and the abstract painting Fragment for Composition VII in 1913 following a visit by father and son to meet Kandinsky in Munich that year.

Kandinsky taught the basic design class for beginners and the course on advanced theory at the Bauhaus ; he also conducted painting classes and a workshop in which he augmented his colour theory with new elements of form psychology.

Kandinsky was isolated in Paris, since abstract painting — particularly geometric abstract painting — was not valued ; the artistic fashions were primarily impressionism and cubism.

In Kandinsky ’ s work some characteristics are obvious, while certain touches are more discrete and veiled ; they reveal themselves only progressively to those who deepen their connection with his work.

Hearing tones and chords as he painted, Kandinsky theorized that ( for example ), yellow is the colour of middle C on a brassy trumpet ; black is the colour of closure, and the end of things ; and that combinations of colours produce vibrational frequencies, akin to chords played on a piano.
