In Peggy Guggenheim’s former kitchen one follows the evolution of the avant-garde, from Cubism to the subsequent ‘isms’: Orphism, here represented by Delaunay and Kupka, and Italian Futurism, here represented by Severini and Balla. Although he was the first, entirely abstract avant-garde painter, Kandinsky was one of the many artists who did not respond to Cubism.
