About the Artwork
"On White II" is an iconic painting by Wassily Kandinsky, created in 1923. This work is a prime example of his abstract style that he developed while he was teaching at the Bauhaus school of art and design in Germany. Kandinsky's time at the Bauhaus from 1922 to 1933 was marked by a rigorous exploration of geometric forms and their relationship to the pictorial space, which is evident in "On White II."
The painting is characterised by its use of vibrant colours and a variety of geometric and abstract shapes that float against a white background. The composition is complex, with overlapping forms and lines creating a sense of depth and dynamism. Kandinsky often used the colour white to signify silence and emptiness, providing a stark contrast to the vivid colours and shapes that seem to convey a sense of musical rhythm and movement.
About Wassily Kandinsky
Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944) stands tall in the annals of art history as a pioneer of abstract art. Born in Russia, his contributions spanned various artistic movements and regions, but he is especially esteemed for his profound abstract works that seemed to visualise auditory experiences. Deeply rooted in spirituality and music, Kandinsky's pieces often resemble symphonic compositions. He was a pivotal member of the Blue Rider movement and also played a significant role in shaping the Bauhaus school in Germany.
