 Franz Marc - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Franz Marc (February 8, 1880 – March 4, 1916) was one of the principal painters of the German expressionist movement.
Marc was born in Munich and studied at the Academy of Fine Arts, Munich starting in 1900.
Marc began becoming increasingly influenced by futurism and cubism, and his art became increasingly stark and abstract in nature.

 MyStudios- Franz Marc
Marc found fresh inspiration in the Orphism of Delatmay's window paintings, which were to have a considerable influence on his own style and to lead to a renewal in his use of form.
Marc was a German Expressionist painter born in Munich; he studied philosophy and theology at the University and then painting at the Academy.
This preoccupation with colour was partly inspired by the Orphist paintings of Delaunay, whom he visited in Paris with Macke in 1912, and probably also by Goethe's Farbenlehre.

 Franz Marc
Marc was mobilized and wrote numerous letters home from the Front, expounding his aesthetic philosophy, and kept a notebook with drawings for the paintings he would create as soon as he was free to do so.
His father, Wilhelm Marc, was a professional landscape painter.
He was greatly excited by his discovery of the Impressionists at the Durand Ruel Gallery and in letters home proclaimed them to be 'the only salvation for us artists', but they made little visible impact on his work.

 Franz Marc --  Britannica Concise Encyclopedia - The online encyclopedia you can trust!
Marc's early works were painted in a naturalistic academic style, but after discovering French Impressionist painting in 1903 he adopted a more modern approach, using simplified lines and vivid colours.
Marc joined the group in 1911 and worked closely with another member, the young painter August Macke, whose idiosyncratic use of broad areas of rich colour led Marc to experiment with similar techniques.
In 1912 Marc's admiration for the works of the French painter Robert Delaunay and for the Italian Futurists made his art increasingly abstract.

 Franz  Marc 
During his first trip to Paris in 1903, he had his first contacts with the Impressionists, and was particularly impressed with the work of Henri Rousseau.
Within a year he was painting landscapes and was well on the road to abstraction, but whether he would have continued on this path is, again, a matter of conjecture.
In 1910 he met Macke and Kandinsky, became a member of the "Blaue Reiter" group, worked on their first almanac, and participated in the first Blaue Reiter exhibit in Germany.

With its chalky gray background, desolate black outlines and weak streaks of color, Marc's depiction of this disputed territory is a chilling premonition of the destruction the war was to bring.
His painting "The Poor Country of Tyrol" is a stark contrast to his earlier depictions of equine bliss.
The six paintings on display, produced within the short but critical time span of 1911 to 1913, are testimony to both Marc's flexible style and his changing perceptions of nature and humanity.

 Jörg Maaß - Franz Marc
Franz Marc is perhaps best known for his paintings because he produced only 46 prints.
In February of 1912, Marc organized their second exhibition and included works by Berlin artists Nolde, Kirchner, Mueller and Pechstein thus establishing a connection between the art communities of Munich and Berlin.
His father, who himself was a painter, strongly disapproved of this decision to pursue art not because he thought it would be difficult to support himself but because he thought his son simply lacked talent.

The group included Franz Marc (1880-1916), Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944), and August Macke (1887-1914), and celebrated the art of children and primitives, but had no precise artistic programme.
The most active proponent of this essentially romantic and rather spiritual view of art was Franz Marc, a young artist who was killed in World War I. Marc saw animals as the betrayed but uncontaminated guardians of what was left of innocence and unspoilt nature.
He painted animals with a profoundly moving love: a love for what they represented and could still experience, unlike humanity.
