New Facts about Vasily Kandinsky

№4 2005 (09)

It is clear that the work of the great master and founder of abstract art Vasily Kandinsky is under continuous reassessment; this is largely due to the input of Russian researchers who reach new conclusions about his work by studying Russian archives, as well as the vast state and private collections of paintings and graphic works, and investigate the great artist’s legacy abroad. In this respect the book by Moscow State University professor Valery S. Turchin “Kandinskii v Rossii” (“Kandinsky in Russia”) published by “Khudozhnik i kniga” in Moscow this year has become a fundamental scientific summary of the artist’s legacy.
