Description: Merging the time-tested formats of the museum solo show and the historic location-centered exhibition, Kandinsky in Munich was the first of a series of in-depth curatorial examinations. Focusing exclusively on the artist's early career in that city, the exhibition and catalogue features over 250 images of both Kandinsky's work and that of his friends, teachers, and colleagues while in Munich. Also included are essays by Peter Jelavich and Peg Weiss, a selected bibliography of works written on and by the artist; a chronology of the artist's life, and a documents section that lists relevant archival materials.
Notes: Bibliography: p. 307-309.
