What is Non-Objective Art?

Non-objective art is abstract or non-representational art. It can be geometric or organic and does not represent specific objects, people, or other subjects found in the natural world. One of the best-known non-objective artists is Wassily Kandinsky (1866–1944), a pioneer of abstract art.

Wassily Kandinsky Gallery

Kandinsky is considered the first artist to be fully abstract. He loved listening to music while he painted and said this helped him intuitively come up with the lines, shapes and patterns he created.

INTUITIVELY - To do something without rational thought; by instinct.
