No, although he did write a couple of books.
I own a copy of one.
He wrote on "colour theory" and is largely responsible (or remembered these days) for "seasonal colour analysis" in the cosmetics industry.
But his early career (pre and early Nazi Germany) was more important.

More so because he was a teacher at the Bauhaus and developed "colour theory".
I can't think of any particular paintings of his, it's more the teaching and his legacy than any single piece of work.
