    Wassily Kandinsky's Composition VIII from 1923 is an abstract geometric oil painting housed at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. The painting does not depict realistic objects but instead uses shapes, lines, and planes of color to create a non-objective composition. Kandinsky was a pioneer of abstract art who believed geometric forms and colors could convey meaning independently of visual references.
