Kadinsky was the first male abstract artist, but Hilma Auf Klimt was the first abstract artist and predates Kadinsky by about 20 years. Her work was based in a spiritual philosophy. She spent her entire artistic career exploring her spiritual path. It is an ashame that Hilma is overlooked so easily.
I agree that it is terrible that she wasn't given credit at the time, however, remember that her angel messages told her that most of her very abstract work must not be shown until 20 years later. I think that was a good message because she would have been completely ridiculed if she had shown her work at the time. People simply couldn't have accepted it , especially painted by a woman.
WHAT A FASCINATING VID!! I'm stuck at home, having to self-quarantine with @#$%^ covid. I learned so much about this wonderful artist. Such a blessing that he didn't make a career as a lawyer.
'Blue Mountain' (@ 16:36) is one of my most favorite paintings. I lived near the Guggenheim Museum where it is in the permanent collection and would visit the painting often. There is something about it where colors are more brilliant than any other painting I know. I've been painting for 60 years. 67 years old next month and got my first set of oil paints when I was 7. My goal with a painting has changed over the years. In my youth I wanted to make people think. I tried to say something. Later I went for impressing people with skill, with realism. 10 years ago I began playing with color. I want my canvases to scream with color. Painting has become fun again. A wall with a half dozen of my recent paintings is the most colorful thing in town. It seems so simple now. To make bright color the focus of my painting. I don't struggle to start a painting. I can splash any color I want on a panel because it will be built on and changed as the painting progresses. Kandinsky is inspirational.
"Blue Mountain" was also a favorite painting of mine and as a young teen, l painted a copy of it in acrylic paint. It's not the original but, it does remind me of how happy it made me feel whenever l saw it. A new friend visited me and he gasped when he saw it - thinking it was an original! I said oh no! This painting is also a favorite my friend's. Happy to hear of your new attitude when you paint! Much happiness in painting is my wish for you. 😃♥️🍀🌷💐🎉🎉🎉
@@tomvalveede6808 Hey Tom, how ya doing. I'm going to try to copy a Monet Haystack I love. It wont be easy. But God I love that painting. At sunrise I think, with all the golden light.
Beautifully compiled and narrated piece. Kandinsky was nothing if not complicated and ambitious and like most of us artists, he was greatly influenced by his world around him, wanting to convey his own interpretations of each. Thank you for this lovely share. Cheers!
This is about the fifth of your wonderful art documentaries that are allowing me to put my opinions aside and understand better what each artist is trying to convey with his art and Kandinsky was definitely on my ambivalent list - interesting fact that he can hear colors and see sounds. That fact alone increased my curiosity in each picture,
Oh Veronika, this is a beautiful video. I wish my studio was like yours. I have an orderly mind as well, thus your space is wonderful to me, just wish I could achieve the same outcome. The scenery is simple glorious. Your boys have certainly grown up, handsome boys. Huge hugs and kisses from Australia.
Agree with all the comments,good and bad. How an an artificially generated voice be matched with an artist like Kandinsky. The human experience is what all art is speaking about.
You know Kandinsky and Arnold Schöenberg were well aquatinted and understood that they both had performed parallel breakthroughs in their respective fields. Kandinsky 1st to break with representationalism and Schöenberg the 1st to formally break with tonality. They had a mutual respect and corresponded. However Knadinsky yeilded to the growing pressure in Germany to adopt a more antisemitic stance regarding the arts he even published an article in a German Art Magazine espousing his newly adopted position. When Arnold Schöenberg read said article he wrote Kandinsky informing him he was Jewish to which Kndinsky responded that his article certainly didn't intend to include fellow great artists like Schöenberg. Schöenberg escaped to California while all modern art was branded as vile and corrupt by the Nazis.
This sounds like an AI voice generator - totally offputting! There is no sense of correct intonation, we get lots of staccato sentences and there is zero flow, colour or feeling for the correct use of language. A surprisingly uninspired choice by the uploader, as the narration is in stark contrast to the painter and his approach to colour and sound, both of which are being discussed here. The voice wants to sound erudite and refined but is as unnatural, awkward and unsuited to the subject matter as you can possibly get. A little like asking DALL-E 2 to paint in the style of Kandinsky. Absurd.
Sounds like a robot to me, but maybe it’s a person impersonating a robot. Like a reverse Turing test. Still liked watching it tho. Robots being taught about the humanism of Kandinsky…
@Tony Woollard I agree with you. I enjoyed reading your thoughtful reply at least as much as watching the video and wondering about its idiosyncracies and potential hidden meaning in employing AI for the narration. A whole new world is unfolding... ;)
"The painting reveals, in a single unified expression...." PLEASE stop adding your own emotional description, it seiously distracts from the work itself. I enjoy Kandinsky, but some of the narration is , frankly, bull!!!
32:44 “His work was considered too individualistic” WTF?? WTF?? What should I do if I have a vision of a n image to paint? I’m going to paint it, no matter what anyone says. Communist or Nazi or Fascist or whatever… those bastids (and their ideas about “degenerate art”) are a pain in the @ss. Go Kandinsky go!!!

Good luck with your painting!🍀🍀🍀
Wonderful art; I love Kandinskys work.
Really helpful in understanding Kandinsky. Thank you very much.
My wife and I saw the exhibition of his work at the Guggenheim. I really don't like abstract art but Kandinsky is one of the exceptions.
Really like this Artist, have several books on his Art and hope to get to Sydney in November to see exhibition on loan from Guggenheim.
Lucky you!

Lovely commentary . So interesting .I enjoyed it so much . So well researched and presented. Much appreciated .
I love his early paintings. Thank you for this video.
Excellent video.
I only knew of Kandinski because of (the movie) "Double Jeopardy."
This video was very informative.
Thank you.
Glad you enjoyed it!
Whouaw Thank you for this,
interesting documentary !
Thanks for watching.
Thank you for this. Just an small note: Tempura is a light batter. Tempera is pigment mixed with egg yolks.
Whoops, thanks for pointing that out!
Deep fried. Now there's on idea! 😊
Awesome - could you Please include more personal Life information. Thanks for your great research ❤
Thank you.! A good economy of Audio delivery and Clarity. ❤

Great video ! thanks
I can see why an A.I. artist would relate to Kandinsky, very interesting analysis- keep up the good work!😎👍
I enjoyed this video very much. It seems to address my current life and art by saying "giddy-up."
Great video , not so sure about the computer generated voice
Super 👍👍👍!
Excellent best on K

Yes the voice is very disturbing otherwise the content is excellent
Beautiful voice presentation and video
Thanks a lot
W for the man who inspired a whole dimension ❤ this is art😊
He incorporated a lot of sacred geometry and occult sigils in his work too (these aren't discussed much in the fine art world).
Beloved
You should mention his ability to draw geometric freehand.
genial!!!
Glad you liked it.

Mmm tempura on canvas
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Uwielbiam jego dzieła.
Ja też
Bello es lo que brota de la necesidad interior.
El artista debe entrenar no sólo su ojo, sino también su alma.
Bad Idea, the Authomatic Vouce to describe a so Complex Profond Human Expression.

Odd - going to Moscow for Law School. Where the only law in the Kremlin. Must of been a quick class...
He went along to get along after 1917, why is he given a pass, while Nolde, easily his equal, was not?
Love the work, he was a bit of an asshole to women.

I wish at least his name was pronounced correctly
The voice is very real, and very clear

AI voice 👎
Una bosta
Gracias por su valiosa aportación
The op art adds nothing meaningful
I totally agree. I found the op art an annoying interference, so I was going to make a similar comment.
