"Neger und Taenzerin" (translated as "Negro and Dancer") is a notable painting by the German Expressionist artist Otto Mueller, created around 1926. Mueller, a member of the Die Brücke (The Bridge) group, is renowned for his distinctive style that blends elements of primitivism with a modernist approach. His works often explore themes of human connection, nature, and the human form, characterized by their muted color palettes and simplified, almost ethereal forms.

"Neger und Taenzerin" exemplifies Mueller's fascination with the human figure and his interest in non-European cultures, which was a common theme among Expressionist artists who sought to break away from traditional Western artistic conventions. The painting depicts a black male figure and a female dancer, rendered in Mueller's signature style that emphasizes fluid lines and a harmonious composition. The figures are portrayed in a manner that suggests movement and rhythm, capturing a moment of dynamic interaction.

The work reflects the broader cultural and artistic currents of the Weimar Republic era, during which there was a heightened interest in African art and culture among European artists. This interest was often problematic, as it was entangled with colonialist attitudes and exoticism. However, Mueller's approach tends to focus more on the universal aspects of human experience and the beauty of the human form, rather than on overtly exoticizing his subjects.

"Neger und Taenzerin" is also significant for its contribution to the discourse on race and representation in early 20th-century art. While the title and subject matter may be viewed through a critical lens today, understanding the context in which Mueller created this work provides insight into the complexities of cultural exchange and artistic inspiration during this period.

The painting is housed in the collection of the Brücke Museum in Berlin, which holds an extensive collection of works by members of the Die Brücke group. "Neger und Taenzerin" remains an important piece for studying the intersections of race, art, and modernism in the early 20th century.
