  • Tate Modern has managed to borrow a stellar selection of works by Blue Rider artists from the Lenbachhaus in Munich. Artists such as Wassily Kandinsky, Gabriele Münter, Franz Marc and August Macke are very well represented and this exhibition floods the viewer with colour. Come and join me as I explore the show. You can skip to the review if you are thinking of going and want to meet the works for the first time with your own eyes!

    So much to enjoy in this one. Great to see so many Münters and Werefkins. Highlight for me was the wall of 3 Marcs including 'Tiger'. I don't pay much attention to curators' notes these day - they tend to detract rather than add to the experience.

      I loved Franz Marc's work. I read a review after posting this which said something like 'Marc was a futurist without the energy' but I couldn't disagree more. The room you are describing was a highlight. This is certainly a show where you just need the art. It spoke for itself Thank you for watching.

      Also, Werefkin stood out for me as well. I know little about her until recently.

    I really enjoyed your review and it has been very well edited and filmed. There's an exhibition of George Rowlett flower paintings at the Art Space Gallery starting later in May 2024. I thought that you might like to cover that?

    • @jameswelsh7789

      Definitely George Rowlett. Excellent examples of painting must reach the public. So much current painting is subpar, we have artists who can not truly express themselves for the lack of sufficient proficiency in painting that are being exhibited at mega galleries, is it any wonder auction prices are being slashed by double digit percentages?!

    • @artgalleryexplorer

      Thank you for the tip. Will definitely cover that. Close to one of my favourite pubs too! I'll get along at the end of May/early June. I'm not familiar with his work so will enjoy exploring.

    Far better than the video put out by the Tate itself.

    What a very generous loan of so many wonderful paintings. I enjoyed the commentary and music too. Thank you for sharing the show.

      Thank you, as always, for watching. We were so lucky to get these in London on loan. Quite a few Turner's have gone to Munich in exchange. It's an interesting new way of working, being pedalled as environmentally friendly because one bulk loan is perceived as better than dozens of individual paintings coming from multiple galleries.

    These artist are a great influence for me and sadly I won’t be able see the show. I’ll buy the catalog from the exhibition. Thanks for shareing

    • @artgalleryexplorer
      @artgalleryexplorer  Před 2 měsíci +1

      The catalogue is definitely worth getting. Thank you for watching - I hope it gave you a sense of the show.

    the morphing of Kandinsky to a more abstract style was very obvious thanks for showing that transition. Also his colour combinations are amazing!! Im in Vancouver so I wont be making it to the show

    • @artgalleryexplorer
      @artgalleryexplorer  Před 2 měsíci

      Thank you for watching from Canada, It was interesting because Kandinsky came across as a bit of a bore - holding forth on his theories of art and spirituality with other members of the group- but his art was still amazing and experimental.

  • @jameswelsh7789
    @jameswelsh7789 Před 2 měsíci

    So many Excellent examples of painting. I’ve never seen the image of the big cat (cubist composition of the head is so well done)
    So much current painting is subpar, we have artists (Rita Ackerman, Dana Hirst. Tracy Emin) who can not truly express themselves for the lack of sufficient proficiency in painting that are being exhibited at mega galleries, is it any wonder auction prices are being slashed by double digit percentages?!

    • @artgalleryexplorer
      @artgalleryexplorer  Před 2 měsíci +1

      Some excellent control. I didn't mention it in the review but I was quietly touched by Macke - just an artist painting what he saw. Not on the same level as some of the rest of the group or widely experimental but still used colour well. I have noticed, over the last seven or eight years, a return to a focus on the proficiency of painting, with a host of newer artists doing this. There is no doubt whatsoever as you say, that contemporary art is way overpriced.

    Could you address the war paintings please? I thought were extraordinary but don't know the artists..Great vlog.. I visited this exhibiting on a recent visit from Australia. It was extraordinary. More info on the women would be great

      Hi, sorry for the delay in replying. I am so glad you got to see this. I definitely need to cover the women of The Blue Rider more - that was a highlight of this show, wasn't it?
