Ulteriori informazioni










In 1905, Wassily Kandinsky and Gabriele Münter spent three months in Tunisia. Side by side during this little-documented trip, they created around 540 works, which are presented in this publication as a visual travel journal. Both were experiencing Arab culture for the first time in Tunisia, where they were fascinated by the alleyways of the medinas, folkish scenes, and Muslim places of worship, the mosques and cemeteries, as well as Arabic scripts and applied arts. This is the first publication devoted entirely to the little-known group of works from their Tunisian stay. Around half of the material has not been published before, presented here for the first time in a comprehensive catalogue and analysed against the context of its creation.

  • First comprehensive study and cataloguing of Wassily Kandinsky's and Gabriele Münter's trip to Tunisia
  • Direct comparison of Kandinsky's and Münter's works
  • Presentation of 540 artworks, about half of which have never been published before

Riassunto

Wassily Kandinsky und Gabriele Münter verbrachten 1905 drei Monate in Tunesien. Während dieser kaum bekannten Reise schufen sie Seite an Seite um die 540 Werke, die in dieser Publikation als visuelles Reisetagebuch präsentiert werden. Beide sahen sich in Tunesien erstmals mit der arabischen Kultur konfrontiert. Sie waren vor allem von den Gassen der Medinas, den volkstümlichen Szenen und den muslimischen Kultstätten, Moscheen und Friedhöfen, sowie von der arabischen Schrift und den angewandten Künsten fasziniert. Erstmals widmet sich dieses Buch ausschließlich der wenig bekannten Werkgruppe der Tunis-Reise in ihrer Gesamtheit. Rund die Hälfte des Materials war bislang unveröffentlicht und wird hier erstmals in einem umfassenden Katalog präsentiert und im Kontext ihrer Entstehung analysiert. Erste umfassende Studie und Katalogisierung der Tunesien-Reise von Wassily Kandinsky und Gabriele Münter Kandinskys und Münters Werke in direkter Gegenüberstellung Präsentation von 540 Kunstwerken, etwa die Hälfte davon erstmals publiziert
