Wassily Kandinsky, Russian in full Vasily Vasilyevich Kandinsky, (1866 -1944), Russian-born artist, one of the first creators of pure abstraction in modern painting. After successful avant-garde exhibitions, he founded the influential Munich group Der Blaue Reiter (“The Blue Rider”; 1911–14) and began completely abstract painting. His forms evolved from fluid and organic to geometric and, finally, to pictographic. Kandinsky is generally credited as one of the pioneers of abstraction in western art.
Abstract art, modern art, painting, avant-garde, dadaism, cubism, surrealism, fauvism.
About the Printer:
In 1830 Mathaeus Smeets started a printing company in Weert with the country's first hand press. Five generations of Smeets then brought the company to great prosperity and the printing company became an innovative and internationally operating company. In the 1970s, the company had a workforce of more than 1200 employees.
The printing company was sold to VNU in 1968 and was no longer a family business.
The company was usually called "Drukkerij Smeets" in Weert, but in the course of its history it had various names such as Emmanuel Smeets, Smeets Offset, Koninklijke Smeets Offset and Roto Smeets Weert.
