Night Waves

on BBC Radio 3

If not actually the originator of abstract art, Vassily Kandinsky was certainly one of its earliest and most influential practitioners, and his book Concerning the Spiritual in Art, published in 1912, remains one of the most important works written by an artist. Nonetheless, London has never before seen a substantial exhibition of his work. Tim Marlow visits the Royal Academy of Arts, where Kandinsky is taking over from the blockbuster Monet show, and discusses his painting and its influence.
