It is generally accepted that Wassily Kandinsky was the first abstract painter and in that, he was very much ahead of his time.
A short and typical quote by Kandinsky himself: "
The artist must train not only his eye, but his soul"

It's not a quote from Kandinsky; it's just a description of the Kandinsky painting, which sets up the main theme of the play (chaos and order, two sides, two faces, of the same thing). And it's actually Paul who says it (Will Smith's character), not Flan (Sutherland's character), although Flan/Sutherland may have repeated it during the course of the play/movie. Anyway, the line is "The Kandinsky! -- that's a double. It's painted on either side," during the scene in which Paul bursts into their apartment, all bloodied up. And then again at the very end of the play: "The Kandinsky's painted on two sides." Sutherland's character does claim to quote Kandinsky during a cocktail party and I've been looking for the exact verbiage myself. It goes something like this: "It is clear that the choice of object that is one of the elements in the harmony of form must be decided only by a corresponding vibration in the human soul."
