“Several Circles” is one of the most emblematic works of Wassily Kandinsky's mature abstraction, painted in 1926. The painting presents a group of circles of different sizes and colours floating on a deep black background, creating the impression of an abstract cosmic space. Kandinsky considered the circle a perfect form, capable of synthesising harmony, spirituality and inner order. In this work each circle seems to possess its own energy, expanding or contracting in a dynamic balance that recalls celestial movement.
The absence of figurative references allows the viewer to concentrate exclusively on the chromatic and geometric relationships, perceiving the painting as a visual musical composition. The arrangement of the circles is not random: Kandinsky places them so as to generate tension and harmony, inviting the viewer to a contemplative, immersive, almost meditative experience that reflects his pursuit of art as a universal spiritual language.
