Wassily Kandinsky: First Creator Of Abstract Art Oil Paintings

Art that is composed of geometric shapes, lines, different colors and textures without a real subject is called abstract art. Different from traditional and classical paintings in the way it is created, abstract paintings are inspired by raw emotions and stimuli and do not represent objects that you see in nature. And simply like other art forms, abstract art came into existence through the creation of a Russian professional artist and art theorist named Wassily Kandinsky. And who precisely, is Wassily Kandinsky? Having been born in Moscow, Kandinsky grew up and spent all of his childhood in Odessa. Later on he attended the University of Moscow and studied economics and law. At the age of thirty, having been very successful in both professions, Kandinsky was offered a teaching post at the University of Dorpat where he also took painting courses.

Driven to create abstract representations of his personalized artistic experiences, Kandinsky called it his devotion to inner elegance. His artwork has long since been described as mystic and effective and had created a niche in the art world which until today, is celebrated and recognized all over the world. And these days, even average home owners are looking for means in order to celebrate Kandinsky's talent and work by buying modern day reproductions of his original art work. And there are several reproduction companies these days that offer their services to art enthusiasts all over the world. And buying these reproduction pieces have a lot of advantages. To begin with, reproductions are obviously a lot more affordable than the original paintings. While there are some reproductions that may cost thousands of dollars, that still affordable when you compare it to the millions an original painting would probably cost.

While reproduction paintings are not precisely as precious or as breathtakingly beautiful as Kandinsky's original work, they are done by professional painters themselves and are pretty amazing as far as copies go. Also, these reproductions are a excellent way for you to enjoy having Kandinsky's, Pollock's and Rothko's art pieces on your walls. And because of the attention to detail that the painters do on their reproduction work, most of the time, only a fellow professional artist could tell them apart from the original masterpiece. And because there are a lot of reproduction companies that are also doing business online these days, you need not go out of your residence in order to get and buy a reproduction painting of some of the masters' ultimate works.
