The Music of Colour: Kandinsky and Der Blaue Reiter

In the wake of Van Gogh and Gauguin’s post-impressionism, artists across Europe were exploring the power of colour in the first years of the 20^th century. This month at The Beecroft we’ll look at the paintings made by Der Blaue Reiter -The Blue Rider – group of artists in Munich that included Wasily Kandinsky, Franz Marc and Gabriele Munter.

 Kandinsky: Improvisation III [1909; Pompidou; c/o Bridgeman Art Library]

Meetings are held 10.30am – 12.30pm in the Beecroft Gallery lecture theatre.

Each talk costs £10 and includes tea/coffee (biscuits!)
