Filled with the vibrant color that is the hallmark of Münter’s
oeuvre, this dynamic consideration of the German painter offers
a lively and detailed analysis of her life, work, and contributions
to modern painting. While Münter is most often linked to
Wassily Kandinsky and the Blue Rider movement, this book
offers a refreshing appreciation of her work in its own right.
Multifaceted, imaginative, and stylistically diverse, Münter’s
creative output spanned genres to include portraits, landscapes,
interiors, and abstractions. Beautifully reproduced images allow
readers to marvel at Münter’s joyful vibrant hues, her bold
brushstrokes and her experimental and innovative approach
to painting. Lively texts offer important biographical insights
into her artistic evolution and place her work in the broader
context of modern art. Comprehensive and insightful, this newly
formatted edition pays tribute to a hugely influential woman
artist whose work is all too often overlooked.
