Wassily Kandinsky
Painting with Green Center, oil on canvas by Wassily Kandinsky, 1913; in the Art Institute of Chicago.
During his tenure at the Bauhaus school in Weimar, Wassily Kandinsky held several teaching responsibilities that focused on the foundational elements of art rather than traditional painting. His duties included:
- Lecturing on the elements of form1
- Conducting a course in colour1
- Directing the mural workshop1
It was not until the school relocated to Dessau in 1925 that he began teaching a class in free, nonapplied painting.1
