Wassily Kandinsky

Who Arted: Weekly Art History for All Ages - Un pódcast de Kyle Wood

Wassily Kandinsky was an artist, teacher and art theorist in the early 20th century. His work was very influential in the development of modern, abstract art. He was likely able to paint differently because he experienced the world differently. Kandinsky is thought to have had a rare condition called synesthesia, which is a combining of the senses. For him sound and color were linked. He would see music and often used that for inspiration in his paintings as in the case with Improvisation 28 (second version) which I used in the cover art for this episode. That piece is also one of the 250 required works for AP Art History. Check out my other podcasts  Art Smart | Rainbow Puppy Science Lab Who ARTed is an Airwave Media Podcast.
