Book excerpt: Animal expressions: Franz Marc's search for a universal art Franz Marc (1880-1916) became known principally for his images of animals: blue horses, yellow tigers, red fawns. What was it that led him to concentrate on painting animals? Marc himself explained his choice of subject matter in these words: "From an early date I felt humankind to be 'ugly'; animals seemed to me possessed of a greater beauty and purity..." Seeing Marc merely as a painter of animals proves, however, premature. Marc, cofounder of the Blauer Reiter group of Expressionist artists, was deeply dissatisfied with the impurity of the world, and was on a quest for a universal art which would resolve the contrarieties of life in the harmony of creation. Using pure colors highly charged with symbolic values, adopting crystalline shapes, and absorbing the influence of Cubism, he moved steadily towards an abstract order of image, coming closer to his own understanding of a better world. At the age of 36, Franz Marc's life was cut short when he died in the Battle of Verdun. About the Series: Each book in TASCHEN's Basic Art series features: a detailed chronological summary of the life and oeuvre of the artist, covering his or her cultural and historical importance a concise biography approximately 100 illustrations with explanatory captions

Book excerpt: Condemned by the Nazis as a degenerate artist, Franz Marc (1880-1916) was a German painter whose stark linearity and emotive use of color eloquently expressed the pain and trauma of war. In work such as his celebrated Fate of the Animals, Marc created a raw emotional expression of primitive violence which he called a premonition of the war which would eventually be the cause of his own untimely death at the age of 36.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The letters by the German painter Franz Marc (1880-1916) were written to his wife Maria from the beginning of World War I (August 1914) to the moment of his death in battle on March 4, 1916. While they contain lively descriptions of his activities behind the front line, they are mainly his personal thoughts on many subjects, such as literature, art, and religion. He discusses authors such as Tolstoy and gives beautiful descriptions of both the natural surroundings of Alsace and its cities. The letters were first published by Marc's wife in 1920. A new edition was prepared in 1982 by Professors Lankheit and Steffen. The edition here is translated by Liselotte Dieckmann.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Franz Marc (1880-1916) was a key figure in the German Expressionist movement of the early 20th century. Marc was a founding member of the expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter along with other great artists of the time: Wassily Kandinsky, August Macke, and Alexej von Jawlensky. A brilliant use of colour along with stark futurist and cubist styles create the distinct qualities that make Marc a master of modern art. Symbolising masculinity, femininity, and violence among his calm and bucolic animal subjects, Marc's unique and creative use of colour and meaning will forever have a firm place in art history.

Book excerpt: "[August Macke and Franz Marc] conducted many long and involved discussions about the goals of art, coming to both similar and different conclusions. These dialogues enabled each of them to stake out his own position and provided the impetus driving their exchange. While Macke's art referred directly to the world he saw around him, his images deriving their authenticity from the sensual presence of that world, Marc sought to arrive at a spiritual understanding of the world and strove to develop art forms that would render visible the unity of being in his pictures. Divided into several sections, the exhibition traces the development of both artists from 1910 onward : from their first encounters in Tegernsee, Sindelsdorf, and later Bonn, to their early preoccupation with the theory of color, their work within the Blue Rider, and their participation in important exhibitions, such as those staged by the Cologne Sonderbund and the Erster Deutscher Herbstsalon. In its portrayal of the journeys they undertook together, their reciprocal visits and gifts, and the execution of arts and crafts works, the exhibition also attests to the key role played in their deepening friendship by the two artists' wives, Elisabeth Macke and Maria Marc. Their bond culminated in 1912 in the mural Paradise, jointly painted in Macke's Bonne studio. The exhibition also shows in some detail how Macke and Marc incorporated the ideas of Fauvism, Cubism, Futurism, and Orphism in their work as well as the positions they adopted on the notion of non-representative art. Out of these influences and ideas each evolved an art of his own, a trajectory that the exhibition documents right up to the final pictures produced in 1914, when the catastrophe of war brought an abrupt end to their lives and work."--Foreword.
