First session: Kandinsky, the Murnau Years 


In the spring of 1908, Wassily Kandinsky discovered Murnau, a small Bavarian town nestling at the foot of the Alps. Its beauty first attracted Kandinsky, Gabriele Münter, Alexej von Jawlensky and Marianne von Werefkin in the years immediately before the First World War. This period, called the "Murnau Era,” is directly connected to these four artists and marks the development from expressionism to abstract art.
