Description
The work "Color study: squares with concentric circles" by Wassily Kandinsky, created in 1913, is presented as a unique exhibition of the abstract language that the artist used to explore the interrelations between color, shape and emotion. This work is an emblematic example of its innovative approach towards visual representation, where it leaves behind the human figure and the recognizable objects to enter the domain of pure artistic expression.
At first glance, the composition of the work is rigorously structured, showing a scheme that seems to combine order and freedom. Through a series of squares and circles, the work unfolds in a subtle color tier that invites the viewer to contemplate the relationship between geometric shapes and the color that defines them. The squares, arranged in a grid, act as containers of the circles, which overlap and create a dynamic sensation of movement and depth. This visual game suggests a certain harmony, but also a tension, due to the juxtaposition of the various nuances.
The selected color palette is vibrant and varied. Kandinsky uses a rich and expansive range, from the darkest tones to the brightest. The colors are contrasted, revealing not only the aesthetics but also the implicit emotionality behind each chromatic choice. Each circle, with its distinctive hue and its interaction on white background, can be evoked as an echo of music, which was a great influence for the artist. Such was Kandinsky's conviction about the connection between music and visual art that many of his works seek to capture the immaterial and spiritual through color and shape.
It is important to point out that this work does not include characters or human figures. Instead, Kandinsky enters a world where emotions are evoked through a geometric and chromatic interaction. This absence of conventional narration leads the viewer to an introspective experience, promoting the freedom to interpret the work from the personal and the subjective.
Kandinsky, considered one of the pioneers of abstraction, was influenced by symbolism, expressionism and popular art. Its approach transcended mere representation, and "Color study: squares with concentric circles" is a testimony of its domain to manipulate the shape and color with the intention of offering an aesthetic experience that goes beyond the visual, imbueting the work of an intellectual and emotional resonance.
The study of this painting reveals Kandinsky's dedication to experimenting with the principles of color theory, which often examined in his writings and treated, as "of the spiritual in art." In this way, the work becomes an object of reflection, which invites the viewer's eyes to immerse itself in a continuous dialogue about the perception and interpretation of color in modern art.
The "Color Study: squares with concentric circles" is, therefore, not only a visual representation, but also a philosophical and emotional exploration vehicle that continues to resonate in contemporary art, reminding us of the intrinsic power of color and the way Communication tools in search of meaning.
