Der Blaue Reiter was a German movement lasting from 1911 to 1914 that consisted of a group of artists from Munich Germany. Der Blaue Reiter revolved mostly around Franz Marc Wassily Kandinsky who we have talked about a lot in class. They believed in the promotion of modern art; the connection between visual art and music; the spiritual and symbolic associations of color; and a spontaneous, intuitive approach to painting. Their work promoted individual expression and broke free from any artistic restraints. I think the expressionist group is really cool considering how long ago it started, it's techniques we use today which shows how big of an influence they were.
