Kandinsky and Klee are celebrated, but what of the women of Der Blaue Reiter?

Kandinsky and Klee are celebrated, but what of the women of Der Blaue Reiter?

The headline contrasts the fame of Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee with the lesser recognition of women linked to Der Blaue Reiter.

Der Blaue Reiter was an influential art group.

The headline calls its women members or associates the “Blaue Reiterinnen.”

It raises the question of why these women are less well known than the group’s famous male artists.

The text available provides no further detail about the women or their work.

The issue matters because women’s place in the group’s history is being questioned.

No next steps or further developments are given.
