Concerning the Spiritual in Art

Concerning the Spiritual in Art

Wassily Kandinsky

Translated by Michael Sadleir

Published in 1911, 'Concerning the Spiritual in Art' by Wassily Kandinsky explores the relationship between art and spirituality. Kandinsky likens the spiritual life of humanity to a pyramid, with artists serving as guides to elevate others toward a higher spiritual understanding. He argues that during times of decadence, society focuses on material success, neglecting deeper spiritual values. This work is notable for its insights into the role of the artist and the importance of spiritual expression in art.
