Understanding the Gearing of Modernism: Vasily Kandinsky's Manifesto "On the Spiritual in Art"
Magnus Vanebo and Jan-Ove Tuv sit down to discuss the meaning and significance of Vasily Kandinsky's manifesto "On the Spiritual in Art". What exactly is "pure" mimesis and the "innate" power of color? Who knows... Are the thoughts presented in the abstractionist's essay even as original as the author wants them to be, or are they borrowed and perhaps even taken directly from previous thinkers?
