Trio Medici: Notturno D897 (Schubert)
Kupka’s driving passion was to investigate the phenomena of vision…Kupka’s experiments in the field of perception centered around how a fleeting image could nevertheless create a sense of emotion within the consciousness:“The vertical is the solemn spinal column of life, the central axis of all constructions. Have you ever experienced the sensation of a vertical…

These works express Kandinsky’s desire to create a pictorial equivalent of…

Allan Clayton: Ingenious Bee, from Berenice, HWV 38 (Handel)
Vedi l’ape ch’ingegnosa Su quei for vola e riposa Dove più trova d’umor. Ne si arresta ancor che bello Sembri a lei di questo e quello Solo e semplice il color. Consider the bee, who cunningly flits among the flowers and rests wherever it suits him best. He never stops on account of how beautiful…

Chu Teh-chun: Plurality (2003)

Wassily Kandinsky: Improvisation on Mahogany (1910)
“Kandinsky’s first major breakthrough was his discovery that color, when disassociated from representational concerns, could become the principal subject of a painting. Taking his cue from musical composition, Kandinsky determined that every color corresponded with a particular emotion or “sound.” “Color becomes increasingly crucial. [… They] transport the subject to the sphere of dream and legend….
Paul Klee: The Lamb (1920)
“The lamb is walking through the colourful stripy cosmos as if it were a lost child. The cross above its head evokes God’s Lamb, which traditionally symbolises Christ’s sacrificial death.
