Small hand-knotted wall carpet in China with silk weft, warp and fleece, refined in workmanship and colors, reproduces a work by Wassily Kandinsky (Moscow 1866 – Neuilly-sur-Seine 1944) Russian naturalized French painter, who was a forerunner and founder of abstract painting.
Abstract art makes clear the fact that the great work is the one that does not imitate any object, but reveals with the utmost clarity the inner need that the artist feels after immersing himself as much as possible in all the things of the world in order to grasp their essence. According to Kandinsky, the artist is in fact “the one who possesses a stimulating prophetic force, capable of exerting a broad and profound influence”. He is more in contact with the pulsating life of the spirit than the viewer is and restores the life force of the soul to the latter and to reality. Art touches the universal sensitivity of the spirit, which every artist helps to enrich with the form that is closest to him. Therefore, according to Kandinsky, it is necessary “to consider right any form that is the external expression of an internal content”; given that “the most important thing about the problem of form is whether or not form springs from an inner necessity”.
