A poet of color
Born in 1887 in Meschede, August Macke was one of the brightest painters of his generation.
Close to Franz Marc and Wassily Kandinsky, he participates in the adventure of Blaue Reiter, a founding movement of expressionism.
Macke is interested in modern life: walks, markets, gardens, street scenes.
But beyond the subject, it is the light and color that dominate: warm tones, simplified forms, and clarity that express the joy of living.
His canvases evoke an ideal world, made of balance and serenity.
The harmony of the modern world
In works such as Lady in a Green Jacket, Girls under Trees, Turkish Café or Promenade, Macke translates the peaceful rhythm of urban life and the sweetness of everyday life.

Each painting is a celebration of the present, a frozen moment where color becomes music.
His art, both simple and profound, embodies an optimistic and humanist vision of the world, in contrast to the violence of his era.
