Upward 1929 Canvas: A Bauhaus Masterpiece by Wassily Kandinsky
Wassily Kandinsky's Upward (1929) is a striking example of his mature Bauhaus period, where geometric abstraction and spiritual expression converge. This fine art print captures the dynamic tension of ascending forms circles, triangles, and lines that seem to float in a weightless cosmos. Kandinsky, a pioneer of abstract art, believed that shapes and colors possessed inherent spiritual energies. In Upward, he orchestrates these elements to evoke a sense of elevation and transcendence, inviting the viewer to experience art as a gateway to the soul.
Our museum-quality reproduction honors the original's intricate details and vibrant palette. Printed on a cotton-polyester blend canvas (300-350gsm, 350-400 microns), each piece boasts a rich texture that mimics the tactile quality of a painted surface. The canvas is stretched over responsibly sourced FSC-certified wood stretcher bars, ensuring durability and a gallery-worthy presentation. With a thickness of 2cm, it arrives ready to hang with an included kit (varies by country). Available in four sizes, this artwork is printed and shipped on demand, eliminating minimum orders and ensuring you receive a fresh, archival-grade piece.
