Alexej von Jawlensky
This second volume of the catalogue of the oil paintings of Alexej von Jawlensky covers the artist's superbly exciting middle period, from his enforced departure from Munich in 1914 up to 1933, when the Nazis banned his work from exhibition. All 833 works discussed are illustrated - 340 of them in color. During World War I Jawlensky's painting underwent a radical change. In the series ""Variations on an Abstract Theme"" he stylized the view from his windows - a small garden, path, lake, mountains beyond - to a culmination of total intensity. He increasingly regarded the human face as the sign of an inner vision. The latter series ""mystical heads,"" ""Faces of the Saviour,"" and ""Abstract Heads"" pulsate with color and seem to express the combined forces of architecture, music, sculpture and dance. Introductory matter includes an essay by Angelica Jawlensky on the artist's serial painting, and unpublished correspondance with Kandinsky, Schmidt-Rottluff and Emmy Scheyer.
Alexej Von Jawlensky, Volume Three 1934-1937
The third and final volume of the Catalogue Raissonne of the oil paintings of Alexej von Jawlensky contains 807 works including addenda to the first two volumes, with virtually every work illustrated in colour. The culmination of this period, and of Jawlensky's entire oeuvre, is the series of "Meditations," intense, small-format works in which the rigour of the "Abstract Heads" is taken to the furthest extreme, but is suffused with even greater radiance. This catalogue is preceded by a general evalutaion of the artist and an essay on the "Meditations" by Angelica Jawlensky, plus a list of works confiscated by the Nazis, and selected correspondance between Jawlensky and his representative in the USA Galka Scheyer. The volume concludes with complete and updated exhibition lists, a general index and an index to locations and provenance covering all three volumes.
Alexej and Andreas Jawlensky
Alexej von Jawlensky (1864-1941) is a recognized master whose works are kept in museums all over the world. He was a contemporary, associate and friend of Wassily Kandinsky, Gabriele Munter, Paul Klee and many other famous artists. In Russia he studied with Ilya Repin and admired the works of Valentine Serov, Konstantin Korovin and other masters of Russian realism and impressionism. In Germany since 1896, he had continued studies at Ashbe art school, where his friends also were the artists Igor Grabar, Marianne Werefkin, Dmitry Kardovsky. Therefore, this exhibition is in the context of his Russian contemporaries' works. Andreas Nesnakomoff-Jawlensky (1902-1984) was a son of Alexei Jawlensky. From his childhood, he was talented in art and many of his father's friends were amazed by his works. As an artist he was interested in nature, people and life, so his works are always full of color, sun and air. Exhibition: The State Russian Museum, Málaga, Spain (10.08.2017 - 21.01.2018) / The State Russian Museum / St Michael's Castle, St. Petersburg, Russia (22.02. - 10.04.2018).
Alexej von Jawlensky: Watercolours and Drawings 1890-1938 v. 4
The fourth and last volume of the work of Alexej von Jawlensky covers the watercolours and drawings executed throughout his career. Over 1,200 works are included and illustrated, showing a variety of techniques - watercolour, pencil, chalk, charcoal, pastel, pen and ink, brush and ink, wax crayon and gouache. Also included are some 83 new additions to the oil oeuvre. Jawlensky's watercolours and drawings are considerably less well known than his oil paintings. They nevertheless amount to a substantial oeuvre of high artistic quality, treating broadly the same subjects as the oil paintings and belonging to most of the major series. Whether independant works, or variants of them, or preliminar...
Alexej Von Jawlensky, Volume One 1890-1914
One of the most original and powerful Russian twentieth century artists, Alexej von Jawlensky worked for most of his life in Germany with early spells in France. After he had come to terms with the impact of Gauguin, Cezanne and Matisse, his work went through Fauve and expressionist periods in the development of a highly personal style, In 1909 he helped found the Neue Kunstlervereinigung in Munich, and along with Kandinsky was an outstanding member of that group. He became one of the great twentieth century explorers of the soul, for whom art was 'nostalgia for God.' This, the first of three volumes that will catalog nearly 2,000 oil paintings, covers the period up to his enforced departure...
