Marianne von Werefkin (1860-1938) Originally from a noble family, Marianne von Werefkin was born in 1860 as Marianna Vladimirovna Verevkina in Tula, Russia. She studied at the Moscow Academy from 1883-1887, being educated by the painter Ilya Repin, who had given her private lessons in painting before. Repin introduced her to Alexej Jawlensky. In 1896, the couple moved to Munich, where Werefkin headed private saloons where many imporanta artists gathered, including Else Lasker-Schüler, Gabriele Münter and Wassily Kandinsky. In her paintings, the artist was influenced by the art of Gauguin, Munch and Symbolism. In 1908 Jawlensky and Werefkin spent some time in Murnau together with the befriended artist couple Gabriele Münter and Wassily Kandinsky, which became a productive time. Shortly thereafter they founded the artist group ‘Neue Künstlervereinigung München’ (NKVM). In 1911, Kandinsky left the group and established the artist group ‘Blauer Reiter’ along with Franz Marc, which Werefkin and Jawlensky joined in 1912. Werefkin participated in a group exhibition of the NKVM, the ‘Blaue Reiter’ and the ‘Brücke’ artists in the New Secession Berlin. Herwarth Walden also represented Marianne von Werefkin in his gallery ‘Der Sturm’. With the outbreak of World War I, Werefkin and Jawlensky migrated to Switzerland. The couple separated in 1920; four years later Werefkin became the founding member of the association ‘Der Große Bär’. Marianne von Werefkin lived in Ascona until her death in 1938.
