Wassily Kandinsky
Wassily Wassilyevich Kandinsky is a Russian painter and art theorist. Kandinsky is often considered a pioneer of abstract art. Born in Moscow, Kandinsky spent his childhood in Odessa, where he graduated from the Grekov Odessa art school. He enrolled at Moscow University, where he studied law and economics. Success in his career - he was offered a chair at Dorpat University - Kandinsky began studying painting at the age of 30. In 1896, Kandinsky moved to Munich, studying first at Anton's private school, in Ažbe and then at the Academy of Fine Arts. He returned to Moscow in 1914, after the outbreak of World War I. After the Russian Revolution, Kandinsky "became the initiator of the cultural management of Anatoly Lunacharsky" and contributed to the establishment of the Museum of Art and Culture. However, at the time, "his spiritual stance ... was alien to the argumentative materialism of Soviet society", and opportunities emerged in Germany, where he returned in 1920.
