# Event Details - **Event Name**: Wassily Kandinsky - An Abstract Painting Workshop at Barge East - **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 08 Sep, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Tue, 08 Sep, 2026 at 09:30 pm (+01:00) - **Event Description**: A series of themed abstract/expressive painting workshops for all levels of experience, lead by artist and teacher Dan Whiteson.About this EventAs one of the pioneers of abstract art, Wassily Kandinsky is one of the most important figures in 20th century painting. Though he began his artistic career a little later than most artists of his stature (aged 30), his remarkable body of work shows a mastery of colour and composition, with soulful explorations into the relationship between sound and vision marking the start of his journey into abstraction.We’ll explore the many stages and facets of his oeuvre; taking in his representational beginnings, the formation of Der Blaue Reiter, his time teaching at the Bauhaus, his writings on art theory and, of course, his glorious abstracts. You will then have a choice of options/approaches (inspired by the great man himself) to construct your own abstract piece of work.All necessary drawing/painting materials will be provided, though you are welcome to bring your own paints/surfaces should you prefer. We will be our using phones/tablets for the photographs, so please make sure you have plenty of charge, or bring a charger with you! This is a fully tutored class so no previous experience is required.Please note the class will be taking place in the beautiful garden/rooftop space at Barge East. There will be a tent overhead, but we will be essentially working & painting outside, so do dress appropriately! We'll be using acrylic paints, which are water based and wash out of clothing, but I would recommend not getting too dressed up, or to bring an apron/change of clothes if you're worried about mess.Unfortunately the rooftop bar is up a set of stairs, with no alternative access. Please message me directly if you have any concerns.Please arrive in good time to set up your painting station, and to ensure we can start the class promptly. https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/ca3018a0-257f-11f1-a591-7f7175887899-rimg-w950-h740-dc061616-gmir.jpg Wassily Kandinsky, Impression iii1911 https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/ca903a00-257f-11f1-a591-7f7175887899-rimg-w1163-h740-dcd7c477-gmir.jpg Wassily Kandinsky, Yellow-Red-Blue 1925 https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events1/banners/cb040a70-257f-11f1-886e-e3e40c802de8-rimg-w1036-h740-dcf1c0be-gmir.jpg Wassily Kandinsky, Composition VII1913 https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/cb38d610-257f-11f1-886e-e3e40c802de8-rimg-w721-h740-dce1d3a6-gmir.jpg - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/wassily-kandinsky-an-abstract-painting-workshop-at-barge-east/100001985522220410 - **Event Categories**: art, workshops, fine-arts, drawing-painting, sports - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket URL**: https://consumer.pxf.io/c/1339408/3151484/39691?partnerpropertyid=1191892&MediaPartnerPropertyId=1191892&svlink=14105511&level=1&u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.eventbrite.com%2Fe%2Fwassily-kandinsky-an-abstract-painting-workshop-at-barge-east-tickets-1985522220410 - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 50, max: 87.38, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: Barge East - **lat**: 51.5421844 - **long**: -0.0210344 - **full address**: Barge East, White Post Lane, London, United Kingdom ## Event Organizer details - **affiliate_id**: 10 - **organizer**: FreeForm Life Drawing (https://allevents.in/org/freeform-life-drawing/21263140) ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: banner - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/d9a99eb4a02e1f4e325de3005baec05040bfbd2dd8daed38eb790cae478b2b7b-rimg-w1200-h795-dc171415-gmir.jpg?v=1774136661 - **Alt text**: thumbnail - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events8/banners/fe77eb8434c69ea9b0af496c03bb63f28f764a380afc2b041e861aaabbb1a738-rimg-w400-h400-dc025b4b-gmir.jpg?v=1774136661 ## FAQs - **Q**: When is the event happening?
