A real classic in the art theory!
The essay "Ãœber das Geistige in der Kunst", published in 1911, was of great importance for the further development of abstract art. However, the newly published edition from 1912 contained numerous mistakes that were neither recognized by Kandinsky nor the publisher and have remained uncorrected up until today. The edition, which was published by BENTELI Verlag for the first time in 1952, has now been revised completely by Jelena Hahl-Fontaine.
