When you walk into the local gallery, the first piece of artwork that you see is a painting by Wassily Kandinsky called ‘Swinging.’

While you are looking at it, a staff member at the gallery comes up to you and asks you for your opinion of the painting. What do you think of it?
On your blog please tell us:
- What do you think of this painting? Do you like it?
- If you could buy it and give it to someone, who would you choose?
What I'd Think of this painting? & Would I Like It?:
1.I would think that this is a piece good painting, I like the nice bright colours and all different shapes that are painted. I
2. I like this, because I think, I can see a figure of a person painting and paintings like this can have any meaning.
If you would but it and give it to someone, who would you choose?
I would choose my sister in law Debra, because she works with gallery, art and etc.,
Kia ora Stanley!
ReplyDeleteI'm Mark, a teacher working on the Summer Learning Journey. I was just having a browse through the blogs and came across this post! It is actually very good and I am glad you recognise the style as abstract, as Kandinsky was a pioneer of that style.
It sounds like your sister-in-law has taught you a lot about art and you're right to like it for your own reasons. I really like bright bold colours and whenever I see an abstract like this one, I enjoy playing with what it looks like.
I hope you're enjoying your holidays and am looking forward to seeing more of your blogs soon.
Keep up the great work!
Mark
Hello Stanley
ReplyDeleteI also really like that painting. The painter must be very talented. Keep up the good work.
