In the organizer's words:

Impressionism took many paths - some led via Munich and Dachau to Slovenia. Around 1900, young Slovenian artists found new inspiration in the vibrant art city of Munich and in the Dachau artists' colony. Here, where light and landscape formed the central focus, they discovered a style of painting that left realism behind and led to impressive, colorful imagery.

What this has to do with Kandinsky and what role Munich Realism plays will be discussed in short lectures and a subsequent talk. The event is part of the exhibition, which is on display at the Gemäldegalerie Dachau until April 12, 2026: "Beyond Impressionism - Slovenian Modernism and Dachau".
