German painter. Born in Aschaffenburg on May 6th. Studied architecture in Dresden from 1901 to 1905. During this time, he studied painting under Munich painter Hermann Obrist (1863-1927) from 1903 to 1904. In 1905, together with fellow students Heckel and Schmidt-Rottluff, he formed the first Expressionist group, the "Brücke (Bridge)" group, in Dresden, and played an active role as its leader. His unrestrained and colorful early paintings were strongly influenced by Munch, Gauguin, and black sculpture. He moved to Berlin in 1911, where he brought innovation to his paintings of big city streetscapes with their closed compositions and sharp angular forms. He served in World War I and developed tuberculosis, and from 1917 onwards he painted mountain landscapes in the Alps while in a sanatorium in Davos, Switzerland. During this period, abstraction of form was prominent. He was branded a degenerate artist by the Nazis, and committed suicide on June 15, 1938. He was also skilled in woodblock printing.
