Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist, widely considered a pioneer of abstract art. Born in Moscow, Kandinsky initially studied law and economics before turning to art in his thirties. He was profoundly influenced by music, believing that art, like music, could evoke emotions without representing the material world. Kandinsky's work evolved from figurative to purely abstract forms, characterized by bold colors, dynamic compositions, and expressive shapes.
Kandinsky's Concentric Rings is a vibrant and abstract composition that showcases his fascination with color, form, and the spiritual resonance of art. Painted in 1913, this work exemplifies his pioneering role in abstract expressionism. The painting features overlapping circles in rich, dynamic hues, symbolizing harmony, energy, and endless motion. Kandinsky believed that colors and shapes could evoke emotions, and Concentric Rings is a powerful exploration of this idea, with its bold, playful yet profound arrangement capturing both chaos and balance. The work continues to inspire and influence modern abstract art.
