Small Planes
1936
Floating against a deep, dark background, a tilted architectural block of colorful tiles dominates the view. Kandinsky created this geometric puzzle in 1936 after fleeing Nazi Germany for Paris, where his style shifted from wild, swirling abstractions to precise, mathematical grids. The small squares—painted in cool blues, muted greens, and stark whites—look like a futuristic city block viewed from above, or perhaps a giant, floating Rubik's cube. It offers a fascinating glimpse into how one of modern art's greatest pioneers kept reinventing his visual language until the very end of his life.
