| Wassily Kandinsky - White Oval - 1919 |
Returning from a walk, Kandinsky was caught accidentally by one of his paintings hanging upside down. This banal event found him awake, turning them into an ambush of the spirituality that radically changed the conception of painting and worldwide. The artist felt that, although the picture upside down did not show anything recognizable, was not alien but more "real" of ordinary vision. In fact, getting rid of every iconographic descriptiveness, it could witness the mystery of the soul harmonies. Until then, the painting was an engineer to represent objects, but Kandinsky, in that moment of pure intuition, he understood that the object is damaging to his paintings. In the eyes of a painter, opened an art world that was made of wood esoterically, expressed by shapes and colors, redeeming the obvious description of a painting of figural objects.
was starting to Kandinsky and for every human perception of art and adventure of immense scope. No longer bound to the description of the existing paint is made the creator of devout spiritual creation, so deep that culminate in the 'abstract . But it also became clear that if the artist is free to follow the new, yet has become intensely responsible for himself how much of his own creation. In fact, to create something valuable and authentic, the artist must enter meditative in itself, until convibrare with the original creative impulse, which is not arbitrary but universal individualistically. This recognition of "the Spiritual in Art" is the great contribution of Kandinsky, and the corollary of his valuable insight (still not really understood) that the work is legitimized only by its "internal resonance", otherwise it remains dull decor. He went in with all this research, targeted by all the means that were viable philosophical and reconnaissance in his time, along with its intrinsic religiosity. The work first abstract works (such as "First Abstract Watercolor) are bold and ungovernability fluctuating, but then, to proceed as a pioneer into the unknown, Kandinsky had taken more than complied languages, geometric and tracers. With the commitment of the detached scientist, he praised the grammar of the narrative within. unfathomable magic source, has deeply observed, took notes, tried to decode the inexpressible, drawing maps of the arcane animated landscape that is abstract, but always consistent.
Certainly it was not art magician or shaman, a priest rather than inspired. It has not thrown headlong into the abyss, trusting in a renaissance beyond the ego, however, there came down boldly proceeding step by step, making sure the rope of Reason. Art did not drink the cup until the dregs, but has remained sober for preserving the meaning and extent of travel. At that time, laboriously opened completely new paths, trying to orient the compass Spiritual esoteric you could not afford to get lost in abstruse wanderings. It was not the cathartic moment of vertigo, the creative chaos of wild gestures. All this would come after a few years, messing what the "Spiritual in Art" Kandinsky, and others had built. Evolution will proceed in stages, creating, destroying, and recreating a new level.
However, it is visible that something has gone wrong in the human being and art: on the road has succumbed to the lure of materialistic cynicism. Without maintaining the reference to the inner resonance (only constant really necessary) and suppressed by a negative hedonism, Art has been lost on the surface. Similarly, rejecting the spiritual dimension, the man was orphaned Existence. Thus, contemplating the bleak landscape of contemporary art, we are inspired to regret the aristocracy of the soul that has made clean, Kandinsky and his work.
