Description

Marianne von Werefkin: A Pioneer of Expressionism Marianne von Werefkin was a trailblazing artist and hostess who played a pivotal role in the development of modern art. Her salon in Munich's Schwabing district brought together some of the most influential artists of the time, including Wassily Kandinsky and Gabriele Münter. Yet, Werefkin was also a talented artist in her own right, producing works that showcased her unique style and vision. This beautifully illustrated book, written by Brigitte Salmen, offers a comprehensive look at Werefkin's life and art. The book explores her early works, her return to painting after a long break, and her influential role in the formation of the "Blauer Reiter" movement. It also examines her lesser-known later works, created during her time in exile in Switzerland. A fascinating and insightful look at an undervalued artist, Marianne von Werefkin is a must-have for anyone interested in the history of modern art.
