#PerfumeSky #FragranceSky

Moser Art Box, 19th century ~ The tall electric blue art glass casket with lock and beveled edges is trimmed in gold and decorated with exotic birds in high relief and framed by encircling branches of beaded flowers and enamel foliates.

Symmetrical found watercolor for a decorative stained glass window. Features an female-presenting figure standing tall with legs firmly together. They wear a long Egyptian looking kilt with an exposed belly except for lotus type ornaments reaching up from where the kilt gathers just above the pubic bone. The arms are crossed in a relaxed fashion over the breasts with fingers slightly parted. The head is straight and the eyes are closed. The hair style is unusual with one long curl on either side of the head to the shoulders. The chimeric figure sports large blue grey wings that sprout from the back and reach forward enveloping the body. They are parted just enough to show the figure. The figure and wings symmetrically fill the circle of the piece. The background is green. A motto that I can't read curves along the bottom 3/4 edge. Sprouting from behind the feet of the figure are some round yellow flowers that bloom into the negative spaces behind the figure.

Today's ArtDrop is 'Sketch for a round window' by Koloman Moser of the Vienna Secessionist movement.

clear glass with pressed ice crystal-like appearance A founder of the Wiener Werkstätte (Vienna Workshops) with Josef Hoffmann in 1903, Koloman Moser began his career as a painter working with the Vienna Secession artists in the Viennese Art Nouveau style of the 1890s. His early Secession designs are characterized by naturalistic motifs on a grid-pattern. His later work for the Wiener Werkstätte included graphic design, metalwork, ceramics, leatherwork and glass and incorporated more abstract and geometric decoration, also using a grid pattern. In this pitcher Moser has removed all decoration and employed the crackle pattern of the glass as the sole ornament on the simple geometric form.

Kandinsky was one of the first artists to experiment with complete abstraction by painting without reference to recognizable objects from the real world. He wanted to free the viewer from the visual distraction of seeing a painting, in order to enable them to feel it instead. He considered his paintings analogous to music, and used color and form to elicit the sensations aroused through vibration, pitch, and the duration of sound. Beginning in 1909, he painted a series of works he called “improvisations,” which he described as “chiefly unconscious, for the most part suddenly arising expressions of events of an inner character.” This painting, once owned by the artist’s partner and fellow painter, Gabriele Münter, was later acquired by Hans Hofmann, a German painter who brought it to the US when he emigrated in 1932. Hofmann’s own teaching on abstraction was highly influential to the development of Abstract Expressionism in the United States.

« Kandinsky face aux images » : le 20 février au LaM à Lille ! 🌈

Si l’artiste est connu en tant que pionnier de l’abstraction, mélomane ou théoricien de la couleur, l’exposition révèle un aspect méconnu de son processus créatif : le rôle des images.

Le Rond rouge, conveys the viewer into the realm of pure aesthetic expression. The exquisite arrangement of the composition's forms and colors represents Kandinsky’s final phase of development at a time when the Surrealists dominated the cultural topography and the city of Paris was a hotbed of creative rivalry. He spent his formative years in 1906-07 on the outskirts in Sèvres with Gabriele Münter. The use of color, shape and biological morphology are all at play in Paul Overy’s analysis of Le Rond rouge: “One of the most intriguing works of this period is The Red Circle (1939) which is almost like a journey through the insides of one’s own body. The dark pathways which link the red circle with the other colored elements are like alimentary tracts. Within these intestinal convulsions are built up brightly-colored structural forms like ladders or pylons. The dark areas are fringed with blue which is in turn fringed with a very pale blue aura, so that the positive and negative reversal effects of light and dark forms are used to draw us into the convolutions of the paintings; changes of scale from the little ladders of bright pastel colors to the more sonorous forms and colors of the major forms involved the spectator as in a densely crowded street-scene or a panoramic landscape.” “The Paris imagery typically reflects an accommodation between the geometry of preceding years,” writes Vivian Endicott Barnett, “and a new vocabulary of organic forms. The triangles, circles and squares, the basis of Kandinsky’s Bauhaus grammar, do not completely disappear but are still alluded to in irregular, fantastic biomorphic shapes. They ultimately assume an independent pictorial life and endow the paintings and gouaches of Kandinsky’s late years with their unique character. Kandinsky’s new subject matter seems to exist in an almost natural realm of strange shapes and unusual colors, yet the distance he established between his art and the recognizable object has not diminished.
