Effect of Color
Effect of Color details the foundation of Vasily Kandinsky's theory of art, originally published in the great painter's Concerning the Spiritual in Art. This bilingual edition contains an original introduction in which Professor Peter Vergo provides new insight into Kandinsky's journey to obtain true abstraction.
Bound in paper or in half-leather.
Effect of Color fits into a broad collection of Thornwillow publications that celebrate the lives and works of great artists and authors. The Effect of Color is a segment of Kandinsky's short masterpiece, Concerning the Spiritual in Art, and examines the incoporeal qualities of color as they relate to one's emotions. He separates colors by whether they are warm or cold, light or dark, and whether they extend to the spectator or pull away in regards to their vibrancy and spiritual associations. Like his paintings, Kandinsky's theory looks beyond the physical into the abstract.
