A Scrollable Kandinsky Retrospective
Three Minutes of Colorful Bliss
The first place I experienced the power of a retrospective was the Guggenheim. It was Kandinsky, chronologically curated, starting with his latest (most abstract) work at the bottom of the gallery.
As you wound your way up, things got progressively more representational until you finished with what looked like a regular art school kid’s paintings.
It was fantastic. And I’ve craved retrospectives ever since.
So I figured, why not curate a scrollable version for our artistic inspiration? Granted, the scroll is not the Guggenheim. But it can be revisited anytime and there is something so satisfying about seeing the evolution of a lifetime of work in a tidy, digestible format.
This retrospective series starts with a recreation of that first Kandinsky exhibit, in a scrollable format that can be revisited when the craving calls.

Saturating myself in another artist’s process is exactly what I need to keep my own artistic practice fresh and inspired. — xo. Jess
