Customer reviews
The German artists‘ association "Der Blaue Reiter" ("The Blue Rider") was founded in 1911 in Munich by Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc during the German Expressionist period.
The name was originally the title of a painting by Kandinsky and also the title of the almanac published by Kandinsky and Marc. Members included Paul Klee and August Macke, among others. The group criticised the prevailing art canon as too academic and elitist, demanding more openness and diversity. The artists turned away from realism and began to paint expressively in an increasingly abstract style using strong colours.
The group disbanded at the beginning of World War I.
