Abstract
Focusing on the album of poetry and woodcuts called Sounds (Klà¤nge), published c.1912, this paper examines how Kandinsky understood and exploited the relationship between text and image. It shows how he conceived of the album as an example of synthetic art and explores the broader principles underlying his idea of artistic synthesis.
