On the Net: The Jewish Museum: www Kandinsky's and Schoenberg's friendship continued until the painter's death in 1944 In the 1920s, it was interrupted after the composer heard that Kandinsky made anti-Semitic remarks, which the painter vehemently denied The short-lived group, disbanded when World War I began, had two exhibitions and an almanac printed of their work and ideas 12, 2004 In the "Musical Interludes" section are Schoenberg's more gentle, impressionistic portraits of friends and family, such as his first wife, Mathilde, and composer and brother-in-law Alexander von Zemlinsky A catalog with a CD of Schoenberg's music accompanies the show 11 Largely self-taught in painting, as in music, Schoenberg's work was influenced by his Jewish identity (he converted to Protestantism as a young man but returned to Judaism in 1833); Freud's psychoanalysis; Viennese abstract expressionists, such as Egon Schiele and Oskar Kokoschka; and the political and social turmoil of the times The two artists' common view is at the heart of "Schoenberg, Kandinsky, and the Blue Rider," on view at the Jewish Museum from through Feb He painted only within a brief period before World War I, largely to find solace from the harsh criticism of his music, which was considered controversial in Vienna, a center of classical music " The compositions' jarring lack of harmony crystallized the style by which the painter wanted to directly portray emotions and feelings in his own work " The painting's ovallike figures, some filled in with color, are the musicians and the audience; black is the piano "Kandinsky compared yellow to blares of trumpets, black to dead nothing," says Fred Wasserman, co-curator of the exhibit and associate curator of the museum, explaining the jolting effect of "Impression III Placed in the exhibit's "Schoenberg as Painter" section, are his nearly identical, grim self-portraits, looking like identification photos Some of these paintings, on loan from museums and private collectors, are reunited for the first time since the first Blue Rider exhibit The oil study for "Composition II" (1909-1910) â€â€? the original was destroyed â€â€? is a disorienting image of a countryside with near-shapeless people, some wearing hooded robes; the topography is distinguished by colors and whimsical outlines
