Improvisation 10
1910
One of Wassily Kandinsky's 'Improvisations' from the early 1910s, 'Improvisation 10' is among the canvases that first fully committed Western painting to non-objective abstraction. Painted, he said, like a musical improvisation — as a direct notation of inner spiritual vibrations — the composition dissolves external subject into free colour and line, documenting the birth of abstract art.
