In brighter colors: Fauvist influences and gender politics in the art of Gabriele Münter

Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis / Gabriele Münter (1877-1962) was a primary member of the twentieth-century German Expressionist group Der Blaue Reiter (The Blue Rider). This thesis examine the stylistic intersection between avant-garde French Fauvism and German Expressionism in Gabriele Münter's substantial oeuvre. Her body of work demonstrates an unmistakable affiliation with modern French aesthetic inclinations, a distinctive characteristic that confirms Münter's intrinsic comprehension of innovation artistic principles in creative communities across Europe. To contextualize the analysis of Münter's stylistic experimentation, this thesis illuminates the development and maturation of German feminine artistic culture from 1900 to 1933.
