I think your last answerer meant 'The Bleu Rider' group (spelling is correct). Kandinski's greatest achievement was almost by accident. he returned from a day of sketching and saw a previously painted canvas in poor light at the top of the stairs and couldn't make out anything but shapes and colours. He couldn't tell what the subject matter was at all but he thought it was beautiful anyway. Thus he realized a work of art did not need to be representational to be good.This was the basis for everything he did after that and he did produce some fantastic works of art. Today we call it abstract art.

What is there to say ? Kandinsky was a very great artist who progressively made a bridge from figurative to non-^figurative painting.
He also was one of the famous artists in the Bauhaus. And he did a lot of other things : he was in the Blue Horse group as well, and he built a theory of lines and colours.
But his greatest achievement is his paintings.
