| | Klee's art and its impact on modernism in art were protean and extraordinary. | | | Klee's position as a pioneer in modern art has increased steadily in the decades since his death in 1940, four years after the diagnosis of scleroderma was made at age 56. | | | As characteristically expressive as he was in his art (9000+ renderings) and instructional writings for his students, he recorded his reactions to his impending death. |

| | Paul Klee's Die Paukenorgel, painted during the artist's last year at the Bauhaus in Dessau, shows the influence of French Cubism, Bauhaus Constructivism, and the work of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy (1895-1946) and Lyonel Feininger in its monochromatic composition of crystallized forms. | | | In 1937 Klee's painting was included in an exhibition of "Entartete Kunst" (Degenerate Art) in Dessau and--together with the entire collection of modern art--was confiscated from the museum. | | | With the sculptor Hermann Haller, Klee traveled in Italy between 1901 and 1902, and became engaged that same year to the pianist Lily Stumpf, whom he married in 1906; their son Felix was born in 1907. |

Grohmann's generous(40 pages, 58 illustrations) and lively essay on Klee is also charming and personal. |

| | Klee was a major influence on the abstract expressionist movement and on non-figurative painting of all kinds in the second half of the century. | | | Born in Münchenbuchsee, just north of Bern, on December 18, 1879, Paul Klee is perhaps the best known of all Swiss artists, his attractive, dream-like works filled with allusions to music and poetry and suffused with an endearing humour and humanity. | | | His family was very musical, and it was only after a great deal of hesitation that Klee gave up developing his early proficiency on the violin to enrol in the Munich Academy of Art in 1900. |

| | Paul Klee: Painting and Music (Prestel, 1997) by Hajo Düchting is an intriguing study of Klee's theories of color composition. | | | Klee was an extraordinary technical innovator, and much of his focus was on creating new grounds or supports that would give his paintings unusual qualities of texture and color. | | | Klee moved freely between figuration and abstraction, and much of the playful quality in his works arises in his skillful flirting with the line between the two. |

| | Klee's illness accentuated his deep sense of the transcendental role of the artist and his work increasingly began to reflect the artificiality of reality. | | | Executed in March 1940 only three months before Klee's death, both of these fully worked but very different paintings are transcendental portraits of a mysterious magical realm that have been made with the medium Kleisterfarben - a mixure of coloured pigment and glue - that the artist favoured in his last years. | | | Knowing that he was dying, it has often been suggested that Klee created a requiem for himself through his art of the last two years. |

| | The son of a musician, Klee studied the violin in Bern, but having decided on the career of painting, he went to Munich in 1898 to study art. | | | Klee switched to watercolor and painted in a form of semiabstract color pattern based on a Cubist grid, a structure which he frequently used as a linear scaffolding for his compositions -- "Hammamet with the Mosque" (1914). | | | Klee's art can be subdivided into four major periods: his earliest significant landscape studies in pencil date from the 1890s and show a searching, somewhat impressionist, and talented approach - "Across the Elfenau" (1897). |

| | And though Klee was not a Theosophist he was, like Kandinsky, devoted to an ideal of painting that stemmed from German idealist metaphysics. | | | In such paintings, Klee tried to give back to art a symbol that must have seemed lost forever in the nightmarish violence of World War I and the social unrest that followed. | | | As the art historian Robert Rosenblum has said, 'Klee's particular genius [was] to be able to take any number of the principal Romantic motifs and ambitions that, by the early twentieth century, had often swollen into grotesquely Wagnerian dimensions, and translate them into a language appropriate to the diminutive scale of a child's enchanted world.' |
