Klänge (Sounds) was Kandinsky’s only poetry publication—a
collection of prose poems, accompanied by 56 of his own inimitable
woodcuts, 12 of them in colour. It appeared in late 1912, or early
1913 (the exact date is uncertain) from the Munich publishing
house, Piper, and thus came at a crucial time in Kandinsky’s
artistic life: just after he had made the great breakthrough into
abstraction, and likewise just after the publication of his seminal
text, Über das Geistige in der Kunst (Concerning the Spiritual in
Art). These were not the only poems that he wrote—others are
preserved in the artist’s papers—but these are the ones he
chose to publish, and in a lavish edition.
