Galerie Mont Pointed and round – Vassily Kandinsky^ Kandinsky

Vassily Kandinsky’s 1925 painting Pointed and Round is a work of abstract art that emphasises the interaction between geometric shapes and colours. Kandinsky uses basic geometric shapes, such as pointed triangles and round circles, as well as straight and curved lines. The artist combines and overlaps them to create an intriguing and dynamic abstract landscape. Bright colours such as red, blue, yellow and green are used to emphasise the shapes and structures of the painting.

The contrast between the sharp and round elements contributes to the tension and balance of the composition. Kandinsky succeeds in creating a visual dialogue between the opposing forms, inviting the viewer to explore the relationships and interactions that are created within the work. Pointed and Round is an emblematic representation of Kandinsky’s Bauhaus period, during which the artist concentrated on the study of geometric shapes and pure colours. This captivating and energetic painting demonstrates Kandinsky’s ability to transform simple elements into a complex and challenging visual composition, offering the viewer an unforgettable aesthetic experience.
