Thinking eye: A unique language of symbols, literature, and light With careful theories and many thousands of paintings, drawings, and watercolors, Paul Klee (1879-1940)is considered one of the mostcerebral and prolific leaders of 20th century European art. Though typically small in scale, his works are remarkable for their sophisticated thought and meticulous nuances of line, colour, and tonality.Klee s stylistic formation was shaped by early affiliation with the German expressionist groupDer Blaue Reiterand, in particular, by a 1914 trip to Tunisia which transformed his use of color. After the war, he taught at the esteemedBauhaus school, where his lectures, like his emerging practice, emphasized thesymbolic potential of shades, lines, and geometries.Klee was also inspired byCubism, poetry, music, literature, language, and the simplistic power ofchildren s art. Famed for his simple stick figures, he often combined the appearance of untutored naivety with rigorous composition and intellectual significance.This book provides a selection of key Klee works to introduce his style and influence. From sun-drenched landscapes to enigmatic wordplay, discover a world at once simplistic, symbolic, and dazzlingly colorful.
