As a central artist of early modernism, Alexej von Jawlensky (born in Torshok, Russia, in 1864, died in Wiesbaden in 1941) considerably expanded the possibilities of painting. Based on an expressive, colorful appropriation of the world, by reducing form and intensifying color, he made his pictures an expression of an immaterial and spiritual truth. Despite the great individuality of his path, his work continues to give important inspirations to painting until today with respect to color, the serial, and the spiritual. The exhibition and catalogue present an exemplary selection of some seventy paintings and drawings and trace the development of the three big topics of "face, landscape, and still life," to which Jawlensky dedicated himself in his work.
