Lars Müller Publishers Point and Line to Plane: Bauhausbücher 9

Point and Line to Plane can be seen as a continuation of Wassily Kandinskys seminal treatise On the Spiritual in Art. Kandinskys thesis is that different constellations of point, line and surface have different emotional effects on the viewer. Starting from the point (which represents the most concentrated and minimal graphic form), he understands all painterly forms as being a play of forces and counterforces: of contrasts. Autorid: Wassily Kandinsky, László Moholy-Nagy
