Popularly known as the Father of Abstract Art, Wassily Kandinsky was an influential Russian painter and theorist. He was a leader in avant-garde art who resolved to expand the boundaries of art to a level unheard of in those days. One of the founders of the pure abstraction in paintings of the early 20th century, he gave up on law and economics to pursue his passion for art and no sooner created waves in the industry with his artistic passion and innovative sense. Interestingly, Kandinsky started a revolution in abstract art, which only evolved, matured and developed over a period of time, getting intense based on novel artistic experiences by painters and thinkers of the coming generations. What differentiated him from painters of his generation was his use of colors and its relation with music. While others used colors to provide just a description of nature or subject matter, he employed his palette of colors to express emotions and feelings. Though his works created controversies among his contemporaries and critics, he nevertheless carved a niche for himself in the world of art. He worked tirelessly creating abstract art that was rich in essence and worked with form and color to come out with the desired effect. While most of his paintings were lost in the Nazi raid and World War II, some of his artwork done in Germany continues to exist, eulogizing his artistic sensibilities and standing as the forerunner and pioneer of the modern age art.
