Blue Sunday @ Museum Wiesbaden 🔵
Diving into Blue with the Blue Riders

Hi everyone! This time it's all about blue. For the Blue Rider, blue was much more than a colour. Kandinsky called it the colour of the spiritual and the infinite, and Franz Marc painted his famous blue horses. The group even took its name from their shared love of blue. So let's spend a whole afternoon looking for it, sketching it and wearing it 💙

We'll do this at Museum Wiesbaden. It holds the world's most important Jawlensky collection, and right now it's showing "Die Blauen Reiterinnen", the first ever exhibition about the women of the Blue Rider: Gabriele Münter, Marianne von Werefkin and ten more.

Our name isn't only about painting outdoors like the Impressionists. It's also a nod to the Blue Rider, who used bold, expressive colour to paint what they felt, not just what they saw.

The plan:
🖌️ 14:00–15:00: Urban sketching in front of the museum. Theme: blue. Find it in the sky, the shadows, the facades, or in each other's outfits!
🏛️ 15:00–17:00: Together into the museum to discover the Blue Riders and their colours up close.

👗 Dress code: something blue! A scarf, a shirt, earrings, a hat, anything goes. Let's be a little Blue Rider ourselves for the day 💙
