Alexej von Jawlensky

    March 25, 1865   -   March 15, 1941

The work of Alexei Jawlensky (1864 to 1941) testifies to the path to abstraction like almost no other modern œuvre.

The Russian-German painter Jawlensky initially belonged to the well-known group "The Blue Rider". In this loose association of avant-garde expressive artists were represented Franz Marc, Wassily Kandinsky, Gabriele Münter Paul Klee and August Macke. Typical for this phase of Jawlensky's work is the portrait of a woman "Princess Turandot". It is characterized by an almost bursting intense color, combined with a reduced formal language, which already hints at the further artistic path of the painter.

In the phase in which "Princess Turandot" was created, Jawlensky painted unmistakably in the style of the Expressionists. Exemplary for this is, for example, the painting "Murnauer Landschaft" from 1907.

But this was to change. In 1917, the painting "Mystic Head Sphinx" was created. The expressionist features are still clearly recognizable, the formal language, however, already appears reduced to the essence of a face. In 1926 Jawlensky painted the picture "Abstract Head Sun-Color-Life". The painting still shows a human head, and intense colors still dominate the impression of the picture. The work "Abstract Head - Winter Mood" from 1932 again reduces the colorfulness, even the features of the human face are further minimized to the essentials. In the ever new and ever further simplified representations of the human face, Jawlensky develops his own unique language of form, which is only for him.
