Composition V, 1911 by Wassily Kandinsky


In view of the fact that Kandinsky, at this time, felt him self to be in an apocalyptic situation, it should not be to surprising to discover that Composition V is yet another dramatic expression of his preoccupation with death and resurrection. There are the trumpeting angels of the Last Judgment, the Ascension of Elijah, the downfall of a city, and many other elements of Kandinsky's iconography from the earlier paintings. The dominating black line and its iconographical meaning can be traced to the glass painting with the Archangel Gabriel, the prophet of death and birth.


1939 Horizontalee tapestry.?




Though Kandinsky (who was a teacher at the school) is known for his abstract paintings, which are included in many famous public collections throughout the world, he also created tapestries.  

One such example is this 1939 Horizontalee tapestry. The colorful and vibrant work is broken into horizontal planes, as was common within the artist’s practice in his later years.

According to Will Grohman in Wassily Kandinsky: Life and Work, around the 1940s in Kandisnky’s career, "There are also more fan paintings and paintings divided into rectilinear fields, although the fields now vary in size and accents and are filled with zoomorphic creatures – exotic birds and fish."
