Many of the poems dated back a few years, but they were very much of their time and were prized both in the artist's native Russia (where some pirated translations appeared) and in the German-speaking world. In fact, the Dada group gave readings from \u003cem\u003eKlaenge\u003c\/em\u003e in Zurich.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKandinsky, Vasily:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - Vasily Kandinsky (b. Moscow, 1866; d. Paris, 1944) is one of the great artists of the 20th century and a pioneer of abstract art. A late developer, he became a restless experimenter, theoretician, teacher and, as this volume shows, was also a fascinating poet.","brand":"Shearsman Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50475929141522,"sku":"9781848616066","price":25.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_4fc49762-1d3b-4d86-bade-f0677278c3d9.jpg?v=1730240561","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/sounds-9781848616066","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
