Art Movement : Der Blaue Reiter
Der Blaue Reiter : The Blaue Reiter's aim was simply to ensure exhibition space for artist's dedicated to unrestricted freedom of expression. The name derived from a drawing by Wassily Kandinsky that appeared on the cover of the Almanac featuring a blue horseman; blue happened also to be Franz Marc's favourite colour and, along with Kandinsky, the horse was a particularly favoured subject.Major Artists : * Franz Marc * Wassily Kandinsky * August Macke * Gabriele Munter * Paul Klee * Alexei Jawlensky * Heinrich Campendonk
