DVD Reviews of Wassily Kandinsky (Artists of the 20th Century)
DVD Review: Mediocre DVD Quality - Nonetheless Even That Can't Obscure His Creative Genius
Summary: 2 Stars
I'll have to agree with the other reviewers. The DVD quality is lackluster at best and I was disappointed by the fact that they didn't delve too deeply into Kandinsky's life with interviews of experts or perhaps even some visuals of the places he called home in Germany and Russia.
On the other hand, to be fair, I was constantly comparing this DVD to a big budget DVD I own about Rousseau that I picked up at the National Gallery of Art during last year's exhibit of Rousseau's work.
What I can say is that I was pleased to see some of my favorite "Composition" paintings presented. Kandinsky's work is utterly wondrous and even a mediocre DVD can't hide this. The colors, the spiritual depth, the sophistication yet simplicity of the form - Gosh, it was great.
At the end of the day, I got more out of buying this DVD - both with regard to the entertainment as well as educative benefits - than I would a visit to the local movie theater.
I wish they'd do a whole DVD on Kandinsky's work "Concerning The Spiritual in Art" - that would be great.
Here's a quick tip: try buying a copy of the DVD from one of the other sellers (Just click on "used and new"), the quality is just the same (as a new one) and the price will no doubt be better. Even if the DVD isn't what you'd prefer it to be, it shall certainly prove worth the small spend.
I hope this review is helpful...
Enjoy the art!
