Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Solomon R. Guggenheim Collection of Non-Objective Paintings: On Exhibition From March 1, 1936 Through April 12, 1936
In music we have already passed the greatest epoch; masters like Bach and Beethoven have never come again. Their universal scope has not been reached by any other musician and probably never will be. Their creations have never been equalled, not even by the masters themselves, because each work is unique in beauty, power and expression of rhythm and themes. Similarly it seems unlikely that painters like Bauer and Kandinsky will come again. The works of these artists are remarkable for rare beauty of workmanship, for technical originality, and for variation of invention; not even the artists themselves could equal or surpass their creations.
