His famous large paintings with musical and theatrical associations transformed into veritable environments. The catalog explores the evolution of a Gesamtkunstwerk in the work of Kandinsky including essays by leading Kandinsky scholars on painting as a total work of art, or the artist’s interest in music and theatre. Separated into three sections, it illustrates how Kandinsky’s fascination for the Wagnerian concept of the Gesamtkunstwerk and the principles of synesthesia developed into large-scale painting within the context of the two highly significant artistic groups Blaue Reiter and Bauhaus, as well as in response to the changing historical circumstances, last but not least, culminating in his large-scale decorative utopian murals and installations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease note that Rare\/Out-of-Print titles are very limited in stock.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHardcover\u003cbr\u003e208 pages | 192 black-and-white and color illustrations\u003cbr\u003eNeue Galerie New York\u003cbr\u003eHatje Cantz, 2013\u003cbr\u003e23.50 x 28.50 cm\u003cbr\u003eISBN 9783775737340\u003cbr\u003eNeue Galerie Exhibition Catalogue, Art History, Essays, Movements \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"vendor-unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":371079161,"sku":"9783775737340","price":49.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0175\/8594\/products\/Vasily-Kandinsky-From-Blaue-Reiter-to-the-Bauhaus-1910-1925_Vivian-Endicott-Barnett_Shulamith-Behr_Christian-Derouet_Reinhold-Heller_Jill-Lloyd_Peter-Vergo_Rose-Carol-Washton-Long.jpg?v=1592847890","url":"https:\/\/neue-galerie-design-shop.myshopify.com\/products\/vasily-kandinsky-from-blauer-reiter-to-the-bauhaus-1910-1925","provider":"Neue Galerie Design Shop \u0026 Book Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
