In 1905, Wassily Kandinsky and Gabriele Münter spent three months in Tunisia. Side by side during this little-documented trip, they created around 540 works, which are presented in this publication as a visual travel journal. Both were experiencing Arab culture for the first time in Tunisia, where they were fascinated by the alleyways of the medinas, folkish scenes, and Muslim places of worship, the mosques and cemeteries, as well as Arabic scripts and applied arts. This is the first publication devoted entirely to the little-known group of works from their Tunisian stay. Around half of the material has not been published before, presented here for the first time in a comprehensive catalogue and analysed against the context of its creation.German editionFirst comprehensive study and cataloguing of Wassily Kandinsky’s and Gabriele Münter’s trip to TunisiaPresentation of 542 artworks, about half of which have never been published before
