Philharmonie de Paris
The Centre Pompidou and the Musée de la Musique — Philharmonie de Paris join forces to co-produce a major exhibition on the musical imagination in the work of Vassily Kandinsky (1866-1944).
Bringing together nearly 200 works and objects from Kandinsky’s studio (scores, records, books, tools…), the exhibition reveals how music was central to his daily life, his vocation as a painter, and his transition toward abstraction. An immersive audio experience offers insights into the subtle interplay between music, form, and color that guided his reinvention of painting. The exhibition also includes audiovisual and interactive installations that recreate Kandinsky’s synesthetic works and his ambition to synthesize the visual, sonic, and performative arts.
