GUGGENHEIM MUSEUM, NYC

KANDINSKY RETROSPECTIVE

Day Trip on Tuesday, November 10, 2009

This is the first full scale retrospective of Kandinsky’s career in the United States since 1985. Nearly 100 paintings have been brought together from three partner institutions that have the greatest concentration of his work: the Guggenheim Museum in New York City, Centre Pompidou in Paris, and Stadtische Galerie im Lenbachhaus in Munich.

The exhibition will offer a comprehensive chronological survey of Kandinsky’s work through a selection of his most important canvases including examples from his series of Improvisations, Impressions and Compositions. It will trace Kandinsky’s vision through thematic motifs such as the horse and rider, mountainous landscapes, tumultuous seascapes, apolcalyptic imagery and religious subjects.

We will board a bus in Concord early in the morning, arrive at the Guggenheim in time for a catered lunch, followed by a private tour of the show. There will be plenty of extra time to explore the museum before we head back to Concord.
