'Eckig (Angular)' emerged during a pivotal period in Kandinsky's artistic journey as he continually challenged the conventional boundaries of art. In 1931, Kandinsky was heavily engaged in his explorations of color theory and abstract expressionism, which transcended mere representation. This piece reflects his commitment to expressing spirituality through color, as well as his fascination with geometric shapes—both of which are hallmarks of his artistic philosophy. The title, denoting ‘angular’, highlights his focus on structure and form, allowing the viewer to engage with the artwork on a cerebral level. Kandinsky encouraged viewers to interpret visual art as a vehicle for emotional and spiritual response, something he achieved splendidly with this work.
