Unfortunately, we live in an age where art has become more of a publicity stunt than an act of creation—an elaborate spectacle designed to monetise confusion rather than convey meaning.
In 1909 his paintings that rabbit and deer in the dusk seem more like post-impressionism art to me. Probably 1910 was the year when his art too a strong turn into expressionism - by itself or after meeting with Macke, and so did the animals and the bush. The rabbit sits under one of van Gogh's bush yet in 1909.
Thank you so much. I absolutely relate and agree with your first paragraph. It is such a great explanation as to why it is so challenging to sell abstract art. I am an abstract artist. My paintings are aesthetic but maybe challenging to understand. I do sell quiet a bit though and I create out of a philosophy and personal values. Understanding the audience skepticism really helps me frame and engage with art audience better. Thank you
To me Franz Marc's colorful animals are source of divine energy from another happier world that lies in outer space. In his tragic fate he was re-united with that animals fate he had mastered on another of his paintings. Progress of the human kind in the 100 years, what would it be without Marc's animals, and I think of his and August Macke tragic death in WWI.
