”A painter who finds no satisfaction in mere representation, however artistic in his longing to express his inner life cannot but envy the ease with which music, the most abstract of the arts, achieves this end. He naturally seeks to apply the methods of music to his own art And from this results the modern desire for rhythm in painting, for mathematical abstract composition, for repeated notes of colour, for setting colour in motion.”
Kandinsky
