Wassily Kandinsky- he is credited for the first modern abstract work. As stated in the Wikipedi, “Kandinsky's creation of purely abstract work followed a long period of development and maturation of intense theoretical thought based on his personal artistic experiences. He called this devotion to inner beauty, fervor of spirit, and deep spiritual desire inner necessity, which was a central aspect of his art.” Kandinsky’s pieces of work shows through the abstract of his personal feelings mostly relating to the fascination of color, and what those colors meant to him in each piece.
