My heart broke at hearing he died in obscurity ☹️ But I love how much he contributed to the art world and how admired he is today, thank you for teaching us about his life! I knew nothing of it! Also I love how he got dressed up to paint. Maybe every time he painted was a big event for him?
Dear Ana: Don't feel so sorry for him. It sounds like he was a "trust fund baby" who never really needed to work for a living, so he was hardly a "starving artist". The fact that he even wore suits while he painted showed how he flaunted his affluence. I love Kandinsky's work too, but it sounds like painting is what he did while he wasn't spending his inheritance.
I went to the Guggenheim in NYC and saw his exhibition there and I was speechless. I have never felt so connected with any other artist or paintings. His work just spoke to me. I'm a science guy but I go to art to relax. It was the best experience I've had in a museum. The way the exhibit was set up to match the Guggenheim architecture was the cherry on the top.
Artist in School I briefly worked as an exhibit tech a long while ago at the Milwaukee museum of art and they had a few of her pieces. My favorite was a painting on glass that she did. Thanks for these great videos.
Hey Paul. I've seen Kandinsky's works in different media and enjoy them immensely. Thank you for bringing the artist to life, with his suits, historical era, personal life story, and professional contacts and progression. My favorite details are the musical & spiritual inspiration and the Blue Rider group. Looking forward to the next video. Bright blessings.
Incredible paintings. A few years ago i went to see the Kandinsky exhibit at the Guggenheim Museum in NYC. I listened to the accompanying audio guide and went from the top of the spiral all the way to the last painting at the bottom. I was blown away by his genius.
One of my favorite painters...I paint...I’m 72 and I look at his work frequently for inspiration..your presentation was informing and added to my appreciation for him...thank you
Glad your class enjoyed Kandinsky, you'll have to show them the other art history videos on my channel, th-cam.com/users/artistinschoolcouk Give my regards to your class. Kind regards Paul
Awesome video and history lesson on Mr. Kandinsky. I really enjoyed it and I learned so much from the facts you presented about him. Thank YOU, Mr. Priestly!
My maternal grandmother’s maiden name was Priestly. I am directly related to the British playwright JB Priestly (he was something like my nan’s Great uncle) we could be related.
Could be, but your grandmother's maiden name would have to be 'Priestley'. I don't know whether you are aware, but the name Priestley originated just outside Halifax in Yorkshire in 1190. In the early 1900's 70% of people with the surname Priestley were born within a 20 mile radius of Halifax.
I guess I misspelled it because it is Priestley (at least that’s how the aforementioned playwright spelled it) I had no idea about Yorkshire. I’ll be doing some family research.
Замечательный проект. Полный информации, изложенной в логической последовательности. Удобоваримый английский. Для детей просто находка, для взрослых быстрое повторение пройденного. Большое спасибо!!!
@@ArtHistorySchool I remember him very well. I tried to get him into Gurdjieff but he was like "Naaah, I'm good, bro!!!" I miss the Vienna Secession SO much. One of the saddest days was when Otto Wagner died. Do you have any vids of that era?
Sir a great video very well presented I enjoy watching it and listening I would like to point out to one important fact about the great painter which was not mentioned Kandinsky had a rare ability called Synesthesia that means connecting two senses together When he heard music he could see colours and shapes in his minds eye So certain sounds were connected to certain colours like trumpets to colour yellow or lower tones of bass to darker blue So that how it is with a group of instruments Also by hearing certain notes on a single instrument that would create splashes of colours different for each note That ability is the most envied among artists Most of people would love to have it cause its an unreal experience There is study being done on a large scale about this phenomenon Babies can develop this ability and very young children if properly trained That helped him to create these wonderful paintings He played music and was a gifted violin player in his teenage years That All makes sense This condition is found mostly among artists like musicians painters designers But even people who are not into arts have this ability not even realizing it A lot of them think there is something wrong with them or that it's no big deal cause they think that everyone has it That's not the case only 4 percent of people have it So that's like winning lotto jackpot and not knowing about it
Yes, I was aware of his Synaesthesia. You can see, when reading his book on the Spiritual in Art that a lot of his theories would not have been possible without the condition.
After reading up on Kandinsky since I’m about to copy « On Points » for my brother-in-law ( actual size), in order to copy as well as I can. Copying is something I do out of necessity to enrich boring times ( mostly Chagall , Picasso), out of a desire to offer as a present, or because one commands one.
...Continuing ...On Points is asked for but I don’t really know him so I’ve been inquiring. I subscribed because I found your comments clear, precise, and informative. Thank you.
That's great. I'm pleased you now have a better understanding of Kandinsky, you might be interested in my latest video about the artist Henri Rousseau th-cam.com/video/0DSCLkhE4xw/w-d-xo.html Cheers Paul
Thank you, I've subscribed to learn more about art. I've never been arty - very conservative about what I like, modern art leaves me cold... always wished I understood it more, but wondered whether it was a hoax! I found your site through helping my daughter with her homework. She's much more artistic than I am but very lazy!
Kandinsky was a close friend of my favorite modern composer, Arnold Schoenberg. Their work has a lot in common and they illuminate one another. You might want to check out Schoenberg's extraordinary music, but it requires a lot of work and patience. Not for the faint of heart.
True Gabriele Münter was a co -founder along with Alexej von Jawlensky, Marianne von Werefkin, Franz Marc, Paul Klee, August Macke as well as Kandinsky. My video was about Kandinsky so there wasn't time to explore the contributions of others. Cheers
@@ArtHistorySchool thank you for the response. I am an Art Educator student and love your teachings.

William Hogarth painted the Roast Beef of Olde England. Kandinsky suffered from synaesthesia where the senses can be muddled so it becomes possible to 'smell' colour etc.
Flat pack furniture was invented in the 19th century. It was not invented at the Bauhaus. A major 19th century flat pack maker of furniture was Thonet of Austria. It was also made in the US and UK back than.
Thanks, I thought no one would notice the small overdub. Bizarrely, I actually said 1833, not 1933 as it should have been, but I couldn't leave it like that. Cheers Paul
He painted in his own way through this disorder. When he heard music, tones, rhythm, he saw their colors, he saw shapes, forms in color. He transmitted what he saw in his head with a brush on paper. I also have a synesthesia, although graphic, but I know what I'm talking about.
@@ArtHistorySchool You might be interested in Sadamitsu “S. Neil” Fujita. He worked for Columbia Records and album covers for the likes of Dave Brubeck and Mingus.
I have read some of his writings on art. I found it difficult to understand. It requires taking small bites and rereading many times even for practiced thinkers. It is worth the effort.
Good post...but I would just like to add one more thing which is now considered a 'fact' by many, and that is that Kandinsky was what we now label as Aspergers. The intense latching onto ideas/phases. The suit. The layout of his studio. My examples prob. do not prove the point. A psychologist would explain it better.
Not everything on Wikipedia is absolutely correct. It appears Hilma af Klint was moving towards towards abstraction around 1906/7 around the time of Cubism, Malevitch, Mondrian, Kandisnsky and the Futurists were moving in the same direction. Each contributed in different ways, Kandinsky was probably the first to give an artistic, intellectual and spiritual justification for abstraction, but that is open to debate.
Mondrian was one of the founders of abstraction along with Kandinsky and Malevitch, but as fast as I am aware he wasn't involved in the Bauhaus. Although, the movement he was involved in, de Stijl influenced the Bauhaus. Cheers Paul

The pure definition of controlled chaos.
Yes, he is brilliant, who is your favourite painter?
Thank You (excellent video). As long as lovers of modern art exist, they will appreciate and revere the genius (and joy) of Wassily Kandinsky!!!
I think you are right, he was something special.
I started this series with Kandinsky, a favourite of mine. Brilliantly put together. Looking forward to following you.
I'm glad you're following the videos, I've got one coming out on Warhol tomorrow. Hope you'll like it. Cheers Paul
Gabriell munter is one of my favorite artists. I was amazed at how fresh the colors of her paintings are and seeing them in person was best.
She was a great artist and very under rated.

Seems artist who start out without formal training are the ones who move us into new ways of making and seeing art.

Globe Wernicke produced a sort of flat pack furniture in the 1890s.
The idea was around for a long time in various forms, it was the Bauhaus that popularised the idea, before IKEA made a fortune out of it.

Actually Hilma Klint has been credited as the first abstract painter.

Correction: Dorpat University is not in Moscow, but in Dorpat (current day Tartu, Estonia). Otherwise, nice video
Yes, you are right. He studied at Moscow University but was offered a professorship at Dorpat which is in Tartu as you say. My mistake.
Kandinsky painted music. Has anyone painted smells? Or tastes? How about a painting of "Taste and Smell of Roast Lamb".
William Hogarth painted the Roast Beef of Olde England. Kandinsky suffered from synaesthesia where the senses can be muddled so it becomes possible to 'smell' colour etc.

cleans the brain,opens some windows.

What about his disorder where he saw color in music
The condition is synesthesia disorder - simply it's when our senses give more than one signal
He painted in his own way through this disorder. When he heard music, tones, rhythm, he saw their colors, he saw shapes, forms in color. He transmitted what he saw in his head with a brush on paper. I also have a synesthesia, although graphic, but I know what I'm talking about.

Yes, his book, 'On the Spiritual in Art' is tough going but as you say there are very interesting ideas in there.

He was certainly on the spectrum, but whether it was Asperger's I don't know. He also has Synesthesia
