Kdo je hodil z Gabriele Münter?

Gabriele Münter, nemška slikarka, * 19. februar 1877, Berlin, † 19. maj 1962, Murnau am Staffelsee, Bavarska.

Münterjeva je bila ekspresionistična slikarka, ki se je ukvarjala tudi z grafičnim tiskom. Bila je članica Novega združenja umetnikov München (Neue Künstlervereinigung München), ni pa sodelovala pri umetniškem gibanju Modri jezdec (Der Blaue Reiter). Znana je bila tudi kot življenjska sopotnica Vasilija Vasiljeviča Kandinskega. V vojnem in povojnem času ji je uspelo ohraniti pomemben del njegovih del, ki jih je pozneje, skupaj s slikami drugih umetnikov iz združenja Modri jezdec in nekaterimi svojimi slikami, razstavila v muzejih.

Wassily Wassilyevich Kandinsky (16 December [O.S. 4 December] 1866 – 13 December 1944) was a Russian painter and art theorist. Kandinsky is generally credited as one of the pioneers of abstraction in western art. Born in Moscow, he began painting studies (life-drawing, sketching and anatomy) at the age of 30.

In 1896, Kandinsky settled in Munich, studying first at Anton Ažbe's private school and then at the Academy of Fine Arts. During this time, he was first the teacher and then the partner of German artist Gabriele Münter. He returned to Moscow in 1914 after the outbreak of World War I. Following the Russian Revolution, Kandinsky "became an insider in the cultural administration of Anatoly Lunacharsky" and helped establish the Museum of the Culture of Painting. However, by then, "his spiritual outlook... was foreign to the argumentative materialism of Soviet society" and opportunities beckoned in Germany, to which he returned in 1920. There, he taught at the Bauhaus school of art and architecture from 1922 until the Nazis closed it in 1933. He then moved to France, where he lived for the rest of his life, becoming a French citizen in 1939 and producing some of his most prominent art. He died in Neuilly-sur-Seine in 1944.
