Wasilli Kandinsy - Κίνα Σχεδιασμός Καντίνσκι - Χαλί - 92 cm - 70 cm

Presented an extraordinary decorative Chinese carpet-tapestry, 100% handmade in pure silk, conceived as an authentic piece of textile art and wall decoration.

The composition is based on an abstract expressionist painting by Wassily Kandinsky from the 1920s–1930s, suggesting a landscape with a boat and different figures represented in an abstract way. The work combines geometric and expressive shapes in muted tones and black, on a spectacular yellow and golden background that recalls the glow of a sunrise or sunset.

This piece was made by master Chinese artisans approximately between 1970 and 1980, following traditional manual production techniques. The use of pure silk gives the surface a characteristic shine and luminosity, making the tones and nuances vary depending on the direction of light.

The carpet was conceived especially as an artistic tapestry for wall decoration. At its top, it has three woven loops, designed to insert a rod and allow hanging the piece. The loops can also be folded inward to achieve a more discreet and practically invisible installation.

The piece also features the signature “Kandinsky” woven into the carpet itself, visible in one of its corners.

Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist, active in Germany during the final years of the Belle Époque and the interwar period. He is considered one of the great pioneers of abstraction in Western art. He was a professor at the famous Bauhaus school of art and architecture from 1922 until its closure by the Nazis in 1933. He later moved to France, where he remained for the rest of his life. He obtained French nationality in 1939 and there produced some of the most outstanding works of his career.
