Franz Marc has long been one of my favorite artists. The most expensive print I've ever bought, I bought for my sister - a serious cat lover - one of Marc's paintings of three cats. His paintings have always felt more of an expression of what an animal 'is', than what the piece simply reveals to the eye. This is why I love the Expressionists, and all the various groups that fell under that label, like the Blue Rider. Their paintings tell the story of what these people, animals, cityscapes, landscapes - are beneath the surface.
Thank you for bringing The Blue Rider to my attention. I'd never heard of the group though I'd heard of a few of the artists associated with it. The works shown in the video are very striking. ♥️
I’m sure at the time the works of the Blue Rider group could have or would have been appreciated by only a small group of people. Visionary artists are so often far ahead of the mass of people, and go unseen in the confusing tangle of daily politics, news and work. It seems fairly rare for an artist to be simultaneously generally appreciated as well as prophetic.
I love these expressionist works, but the commentary is skewed in a way that makes the presentation of them just a bit disgusting from my own perspective. Thank you for bringing art into the light!
Without the women of the der blau Reiter movement many of the works of the greatest male artists of that time would not have been possible. It’s such a wonderful achievement to have the men and women of such an important time in art theory and history be showcased together. I loved the every detail of this video from the music as color through the saxophone, down to the velvet blue suit. I could go on. Incredible job the to people who made this video possible. Many thanks. The beauty of it brought me to tears and made me nostalgic and grateful for my time in Munich to view the works of this era in in context and in person.
not sure about the gender fluidity of it all, perhaps I am not sure what that means in practical terms, the gender is definitly pretty set in the paintings, I am not getting confused in that respect, as to how people get respected as male or female in respect to who is holding the purse strings, I guess if that's important then yeah, the person holding the purse strings is not the person who should decide who the other is or is not. I suppose you mean money/power fluidity
'The spiritual properties of colour' - who were the Blue Rider? | Tate 1700pm 22.8.24 blue seems to be the predominant colour of the art world. theosophy seems to have informed this colour co-ordinated assualt on the senses and the art world. colour means something. if you believe these guys. if you don't feel colour to be to much of a muchness or much of a symbolic concern then it, colour, means nothing. take note you sad and pathetic car owners... p.s i am quite happy to feel colour means nothing. it is a "bourgeois constraint".. "scientific is not terrific".. the "delirious dilletente" will have is say, sister.
Wayyyy too much contrived emotionalism in this video. Let others come to their own emotional response instead of using the music and a person walking around with a saxophone looking at the art with serious stances and glances to guide that response.
This video doesn't offer even a single example of the spiritual qualities of color. It's just the usual boring feminist screed. What an annoying waste of time.
The dog whistle misandry in this presentation isn’t surprising, but no less unnecessary, and in fact quite sad. True inclusivity means not bashing either side of a story in order to promote the other.
Women were always allowed to be artists. They just had separate schools. Plus the vast majority of women were more interested in their families than careers.
No they weren't. It was forbidden for woman to study anatomy and therefore to learn trough acadamies. That change only in 1860 in England and in 1840 in France. Also if the magiority of women were interested only in family and childrens there would be no point in banning them; but the moment acadamies open their doors the result was quiet different.

a bloc of artists I have never heard of. (Kandinsky excepted)
thank you for the introduction!
and the way you decided to present them.
Love all these women being re centered within art.

Nice ideological piece.

Does anyone know the name of the painting at 0:48?
Riding Couple by Wassily Kandinsky, 1906-7 😊
Thanks.

Now people think if they imagine colors with sounds they have synesthesia. It's not the same thing.
😍
That woman doesn’t know how to play a musical instrument. It was like a 12 year old trying to play a borrowed instrument.
The women artists' works stand on their own. The woke agenda leaves a bitter taste.

@@ebonyricci5697 there were tons of female artists before the 1800s. And they werent banned it was just a culture norm that 95% of women agreed with.
