Russian artist Wassily Kandinsky is widely regarded as one of the pioneers of non-objective painting. In his book "Concerning the Spiritual in Art," he discusses various factors that influenced his shift towards non-objective painting. Unfortunately, I don't have access to specific quotes or page numbers from the book to provide a direct response to this question.

1. Denis was influenced to write the first non-objective statement by "a certain mysticism of temperament" and "the beginning of a spiritual or idealist conception of art." (Definition of Neotraditionism, para. 12)
2. Kandinsky arrived at non-objective painting due to his belief that "art is a necessity of the human spirit," and that "art is an expression of inner life." (Concerning the Spiritual in Art, p. 4)
3. Kandinsky wrote about color, stating that "Color is the keyboard, the eyes are the hammers, the soul is the piano with many strings. The artist is the hand that plays, touching one key or another purposively, to cause vibrations in the soul." (Concerning the Spiritual in Art - Part II. About Painting, VI: The Language of Form and Color, p. 63)
