Klänge Pl.04 1913

Klänge Pl.04 was made by Wassily Kandinsky, and the approach to mark making and colour palette in the piece relates to an understanding of art making as a process. Looking at the material aspects of the work, such as texture and colour, the paint is thin, transparent, and opaque. It's difficult to tell the brushes and tools that may have been used in its making. These elements shape our emotional experience of the artwork and contribute to its conceptual resonances. If you look at the mark making you can see the detail relates to the piece as a whole, either formally or metaphorically. The piece relates to the artists wider oeuvre and art as an ongoing conversation and exchange of ideas across time. Art embraces ambiguity and multiple interpretations over fixed or definitive meanings.
