Kandinsky at the Guggenhem


I can't imagine a better forum for a Kandinsky retrospective than the Guggenheim. Not only was Solomon Guggenheim an avid collector of his work, Frank Lloyd Wright was influenced by Kandinsky's combination of the organic and geometry. The colors, the shapes, the energy of Kandinsky's work can only serve as a compliment the museum's curving white space. So far everyone who sees the show raves-- it's up until January 2010, so let me know what you think.

I'll be going soon, seeing it the same day as Georgia O'Keefe at the Whitney. They both look like huge hits so I'll be picking a quiet time to visit

That sounds like a perfect double header--
