On display in the Germanic Museum a well-rounded representation of the con-objective works of Vastly Kandinsky, Russian painter who pioneered in revolutionary trend toward post-impressionism during 1909 and 1910. The exhibition, presented by the College Art Association through the assistance of Karl Nierendorf and several other lenders, will be on view until April 24. Seventy years old, Vasily Kandinsky known as one of the foremost painters in Europe and the United States and it much appreciated in Japan. Beginning the study of art in Munich in 1902, he treated Russian folk-lore and regends in a personal and romantic style still venturing into pure non-objective April in 1909. He was the first artist whose work consisted of pure form and had no subject content. Taught Under Gropius
In 1922 Kandinsky became a teacher in the Bauhaus in Weimar under the direction of Walter Gropius, appointed Professor of Architecture here early this year. With the writing of a book explaining his concept of post-Impressionism, "The Art of Spiritual Harmony", Kandinsky has fortified his advances in the field. The exhibition includes oil paintings, water colors, lithographs, and etchings, all done the World War. Nothing but his interpretation of imposition and color limits the artist a post-impressionism. He attempts to express with the greatest possible the material and spiritual significance of a subject, as the "treeness" a tree or the "wallness" of a wall. Generally the works of Kandinsky are considered to be the most abstract expressions of post-impressionism, requiring an imaginative reception on part of the observer. Recital On Bach Organ
