You are hopeless as a student - nothing can be taught to you. All I can do for you is to nurture and care for your talent. "You can only do what has grown within you," Kandinsky judged about the independent talent of Gabriele Münter, whom he met in 1901 as a student in his painting class. Münter's artistic strength is evident in all phases of her work. She painted and photographed throughout her life, continuing this even during difficult times, such as after her separation from Kandinsky or during the isolation caused by National Socialism. This volume not only presents Münter as a painter, draftsman, and photographer but also reflects her engagement with the applied arts, offering authentic insights into the work of a female artist of her time.
