Who was Paul Klee?
Paul Klee (1879-1940) was a Swiss-German painter, printmaker, and draughtsman who played a significant role in the development of modern art.
Klee was born in Münchenbuchsee, Switzerland, and trained at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, Germany. He was influenced by Expressionism, Cubism, and Surrealism, among other movements, but developed a style all his own. He was fascinated by color theory and often used abstract shapes and forms in his work.
The beginnings
Paul Klee was born on December 18, 1879, in Münchenbuchsee, a suburb of Bern, Switzerland. His father, Hans Klee, was a music teacher, and his mother, Ida Klee, was a singer. Klee was the second of two children in the family.
Klee showed an early aptitude for music and began playing the violin at the age of seven. He also showed an interest in drawing and painting, and his parents encouraged his artistic talents. In 1898, Klee began studying art at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich, Germany.
Klee’s time at the academy was difficult, and he struggled to find his own artistic voice. He was influenced by the prevailing academic style of the time, which emphasized realistic, representational art. Klee found this style too limiting, so he started to try out new styles.
Klee went to Paris in 1905, where he saw the work of the Fauves and the Cubists. These artists had a profound impact on Klee, and he began to experiment with their techniques and styles in his own work.
After completing his studies in Munich in 1906, Klee returned to Bern and began to establish himself as an artist. He kept trying out new styles and methods, and people began to notice his work. In 1911, Klee met the artist Wassily Kandinsky, who would become a close friend and influence on his work...
