Abstract
Among the Blue Rider artists, Jawlensky is distinguished for passionate ultra-Fauve colors used for primarily mystical ends. The human body, or more specifically the human head, is his symbol; with this theme he turned out a series of remarkable works distinguished by their visual and subjective excitement. In addition to a relatively small number of landscapes and still life paintings, these heads constitute his entire production. Although toward the end of his life Jawlensky adopted a more abstract form of painting, he is primarily committed to an imaginative and emotional figurative art. His symbolic use of color is parallel with that of Klee, Marc and Kandinsky.
