Delicate Tension - Posters

Kandinsky (1866 – 1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist. Art and sound were one and the same to him, because it is believed he had synaesthesia—a harmless condition that allowed him to appreciate two or more senses simultaneously.
Kandinsky could not only see the color blue, he could hear it—he associated colors and tones with specific musical timbres. Part of his goal as an artist was to depict and share his synaesthetic experiences. The result is a painting that is complex and visually stimulating, with color combinations that reverberate.

About Delicate Tension
Delicate Tension was executed by Kandinsky at the Bauhaus during the prestigious school’s most rationalist period under the directorship of Theo van Doesburg, from 1923 to 1925. During these years the initial Expressionistic style of this avant-garde centre evolved towards greater commitment to the Constructivist In creating this artwork, it is as though Kandinsky was compelled to draw carefully with a stencil and let loose with a paintbrush, to let his imagination take flight and lead with form and structure. To me, that perfectly reflects a fundamental truth in all our daily lives—the constant need to navigate the delicate tensions between competing desires: to work or play, to jump up or sit down, to drink water or wine. It’s both exhausting and exhilarating. About the Posters
