The situation and state of research at the beginning of the project At the beginning of the project an assessment was made which groups of works within the collection are more likely to be linked to the “liquidation” of private and public collections during the Nazi dictatorship in Germany in the years from 1933 to 1945. It was found that there is only very patchy provenance information for the forty-two artworks donated in 2000 to the Kirchner Museum Davos by “Rosemarie and Konrad Baumgart-Möller in memory of Ferdinand Möller, Berlin.” Since “Möller” is one of the red-flag names in provenance research, the investigation of this part of the collection was given priority.

Their very particular kind of intensely colorful, expressive paint- ing, using a dense formal idiom that was moving toward abstraction, was based on a unique spiritual approach that opened up completely new possibilities for expression, ranging in style from a height- ened realism to abstraction.

Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Volker Herzner 2. Gutachter: Prof. Dr. Norbert Schneider Tag der mundlichen¨ Prufung:¨ 13. Dezember 2000 Vorwort Ein Praktikum im Kunstmuseum Bern und der darin domizilierten Paul- Klee-Stiftung erm¨oglichte mir die Bearbeitung des Briefwechsels zwischen Paul Klee und Franz Marc einschließlich der Schreiben von und an Lily Klee und Maria Marc. Die Briefedition war ursprunglich¨ als Thema der Magister- arbeit vorgesehen. Nach der textkritischen Transkription und einer ersten Kommentierung der rund 100 Dokumente sprengte sie jedoch den Rahmen einer solchen Arbeit, so daß ich das Thema auf die Mitteilungen der Vor- kriegszeit begrenzen mußte. Infolgedessen beabsichtigte ich zun¨achst mit meiner Dissertation die Fertig- stellung dieser Edition. Die weiterfuhrenden¨ Untersuchungen der Freund- schaft zwischen Paul Klee und Franz Marc w¨ahrend des Krieges zeigten eine zunehmende Distanzierung Klees von seinem Freund aufgrund dessen Weltbildes, die im Herbst 1915 zu einem vorl¨aufigen, durch Marcs Tod im M¨arz 1916 zu einem endgultigen¨ Abbruch ihres Schriftverkehrs fuhrte.¨ Die sp¨ate Weltsicht Marcs, die diese Entfremdung unter den Freunden bewirkte, hatte nichts mehr mit den vormals romantisch-pantheistischen Wertvorstel- lungen gemein, die die Kunstwissenschaft bis heute ausschließlich mit sei- nem Namen verbindet. Vielmehr vertrat er in seinen letzten Lebensjahren eine ‘geistige’ Weltschau, die jede Form von Materie negierte, die doch ei- ne Grundbedingung fur¨ ein romantisches Weltverst¨andnis darstellt.

  • Franz Marc Became World Famous for His Expressionist Animal Paintings; No Other Body of Work Has Been So Frequently Reproduced As That of This Munich Artist
    The 100th Anniversary of Franz Marc’s Death “Unnoticed trails of life” Blue horses, yellow cows, red deer – Franz Marc became world famous for his Expressionist animal paintings; no other body of work has been so frequently reproduced as that of this Munich artist. One hundred years after his death, biographies and exhibitions afford significant and sometimes previously unknown insights into Marc’s life and work. Feed 1: “How many times have I longed to roam over these heights, plangently playing on the dark violin of nature; oh, why has fate shut me out from this art? But I would die from this longing, most assuredly, just as from the yearning of love had it never been fulfilled; or from painting – did I not myself paint.” Speaker: Franz Marc in 1906. The twenty-six-year old artist is at home, at the foot of the Bavarian Alps, to paint animals. He is still searching for his own style. Again and again Marc is plagued by his broken off art studies, the few number of his works, financial difficulties. He is searching for a religious affiliation, initially to Christianity and later to Buddhism. His inner conflict, the tendency to melancholy, fear and apprehension – all this is reflected in his life and work. Feed 2: “And because of this distress Marc sought contact with people. We can see this in his early relationships with women, but with men and colleagues he was also extraordinarily companionable, very “team-oriented”,” Speaker: as the journalist and Marc expert Brigitte Roßbeck writes. In 1911 Marc meets Vassily Kandinsky.

  • Expressionism in Germany and France: from Van Gogh to Kandinsky
    ^ Exhibition Didactics Expressionism in Germany and France: From Van Gogh to Kandinsky Private Collectors French avant-garde art was being avidly collected and exhibited in Germany, especially by private collectors, who did not have the same constraints that museum directors and curators faced. Karl Ernst Osthaus was one of the most passionate and important collectors and a fervent supporter of the German Expressionists. In 1902 Osthaus opened the Museum Folkwang in Hagen (today the museum is in Essen). There he exhibited his own collection, including the works of Paul Cézanne, Paul Gauguin, Vincent van Gogh, Henri Matisse, and Paul Signac. His museum was frequented by admirers of avant-garde art, including many of the new generation of Expressionists, among them August Macke, Franz Marc, Emil Nolde, Max Pechstein, and Christian Rohlfs (who later moved to Hagen and had a studio at the museum). The cosmopolitan Count Harry Kessler, who grew up partly in Paris and later divided his time between France and Germany, discovered Neo-Impressionism early through the works of Signac and Théo van Rysselberghe, which he saw in Paris. He was also interested in the French artists group known as the Nabis, and acquired The Mirror in the Green Room (on view in this exhibition) by Pierre Bonnard, one of its members. Kessler also commissioned works from French painters, including Henri-Edmond Cross’s Bather , also on view in this exhibition. In 1905, when he was the director of the Grand Ducal Museum in Weimar, Kessler organized the first major Gauguin exhibition in Germany. Although it provoked a scandal— Gauguin was criticized for being too “exotic”—the exhibition presented the artist’s colorful Symbolist paintings of Brittany and Tahiti to the German art world.

    6 7 PREFACE This exhibition is devoted to two artists who shared ideas about art, and in the process helped Franz Marc, The First Animals, 1913, gouache create the movement known as Expressionism in early twentieth-century Germany. But it is really and pencil on paper. Private Collection about the power of friendship. Franz Marc and August Macke met as young artists in Munich in 1910. In the four years prior to Macke’s untimely death in 1914 (Marc himself died in 1916), they wrote each other scores of letters, visited each other’s homes, traveled together, and often discussed the development of their work. What grew out of this friendship were paintings and drawings of tremendous power, works that had the ability to challenge the primacy of French art in breaking boundaries and setting new directions. Seen side by side, the works seem to speak to each other, continuing this conversation even into the present day. I first came across an exhibition devoted to these two artists at the Kunstmuseum Bonn in 2014, a show that traveled to the Lenbachhaus in Munich. It was very moving to think about these artists, whose work I had long admired and collected, and to understand them as two young men finding their way in the world. I thought about the founding of the Neue Galerie New York, and how it had developed as a result of my friendship with the art dealer and curator Serge Sabarsky. What began as a series of freewheeling conversations about life and art eventually took root, and over the course of several years, the museum took shape.
