A Flecha
1943
Kandinsky painted this cosmic dreamscape in 1943 while living in Paris during World War II, creating a visual symphony of floating shapes against a deep, midnight-blue background. A fiery red form—resembling a flame or a stylized arrow—dominates the upper right, seemingly shooting past a segmented crescent moon and ladder-like structures. This piece is a perfect example of his late 'biomorphic' period, where rigid geometry gave way to softer, organic forms that look like they're dancing in zero gravity, offering a joyful escape from the turmoil of the real world.
