Concerning the Spiritual in Art and Painting in Particular [An Updated Version of the Sadleir Translation]

Exploring the essence of painting, Kandinsky categorizes art into impressions, improvisations, and compositions, emphasizing the significance of the unconscious in artistic creation. He likens humanity's spiritual journey to a pyramid, with great artists at the pinnacle guiding others towards enlightenment. This reprint features an updated translation and includes a new introduction and memoir by Nina Kandinsky, offering insights into the artist's corrections and his evolution. The edition captures Kandinsky's vision of art as a spiritual endeavor amidst a world often distracted by superficial success.
