He began the violin at seven and at 11 was invited to play as an extraordinary member of the Bern Music Association, but in his teens he chose the visual arts, and in 1898 he went to study at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. In 1906 he married the pianist Lily Stumpf, and their son Felix was born the following year. In 1911 he joined the Blaue Reiter circle around Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc, and in April 1914 a short trip to Tunisia with August Macke and Louis Moilliet became his breakthrough in colour. From January 1921 to April 1931 he taught at the Bauhaus, where Kandinsky joined him in 1922, and from 1931 at the D\u00fcsseldorf Academy, until the Nazis dismissed him in 1933 and the family emigrated to Switzerland. In 1937 seventeen of his works hung in the Nazi exhibition \u201cDegenerate Art\u201d, and 102 were seized from German public collections. Though seriously ill in his last years, he made more than 1,200 works in 1939 alone. He died on 29 June 1940 in Muralto near Locarno, leaving about 9,000 works, and is buried in Bern.<\/p>\n<h2>Style: colour, line and music<\/h2>\n<p>Klee has been linked with Expressionism, Cubism and Surrealism, but his works fit no single box: he worked largely apart from his peers and read every new trend in his own way. A born draughtsman, he long felt he had no sense of colour, until Tunisia changed that; from then on the coloured rectangle became his basic building block, which some scholars compare to a musical note, because he set it beside others to make colour harmonies. He mixed oil, watercolour, ink and pastel, often in a single work, painted on canvas, burlap, muslin, gauze and cardboard, and devised his own oil transfer method for his drawings. His works are usually small, often fragile and childlike in their play, with dry humour, geometric grids, letters and lively figures of animals and people. Music stayed with him all his life: in 1921 the poet Rainer Maria Rilke wrote that he would have guessed Klee played the violin, so often did his drawings seem like transcriptions of music.<\/p>\n<h2>His most famous works<\/h2>\n<p>In our gallery the early 1920s come first. Angelus Novus (1920), an angel drawn in fine brown lines with his oil transfer method, was bought in 1921 by the philosopher Walter Benjamin, who later made it his \u201cangel of history\u201d; it is now in the Israel Museum in Jerusalem. Twittering Machine (1922), four line-drawn birds on a wire with a crank, reached the Museum of Modern Art in New York in 1939 after the Nazis had branded it degenerate. Senecio (1922), a round head built of orange, pink and yellow squares, hangs in the Kunstmuseum Basel, and Red Balloon (1922), a red balloon above little houses made of squares, painted on gauze, in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. From the Bauhaus years come Fish Magic (1925), glowing fish, a clock tower and flowers on a deep black ground, in the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and Highways and Byways (1929), painted after his trip to Egypt as a broad striped road rising to a blue horizon, in the Museum Ludwig in Cologne. Ad Parnassum (1932), painted in D\u00fcsseldorf, is one of his largest works at 100 x 126 cm and is considered his masterpiece and the best example of his pointillist style; it belongs to the Kunstmuseum Bern. To see where he stands beside the other great masters, read our <a href=\"https:\/\/svetslik.si\/en\/top-5-most-famous-paintings-in-the-world\/\">overview of the most famous paintings in the world<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently asked questions about Paul Klee<\/h2>\n<h3>Who was Paul Klee?<\/h3>\n<p>A Swiss-born German painter and draughtsman (1879\u20131940), a member of the Blaue Reiter circle and a teacher at the Bauhaus beside Wassily Kandinsky, who left about 9,000 works.<\/p>\n<h3>What did Paul Klee paint?<\/h3>\n<p>Mostly small works in watercolour, oil, ink and mixed media on paper, gauze, canvas and board: figures, heads, animals, houses and landscapes, as well as fully abstract compositions of coloured rectangles, often with a touch of dry humour.<\/p>\n<h3>Where can I see Paul Klee\u2019s original works?<\/h3>\n<p>The Zentrum Paul Klee in Bern shows his works in rotation. Of the works in our gallery, Ad Parnassum is in the Kunstmuseum Bern, Senecio in the Kunstmuseum Basel, Twittering Machine at MoMA and Red Balloon at the Guggenheim in New York, Fish Magic in Philadelphia, Highways and Byways in Cologne and Angelus Novus in Jerusalem.<\/p>\n<h3>Can I buy a hand-painted reproduction of a Paul Klee painting?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes, our online gallery offers <a href=\"https:\/\/svetslik.si\/en\/paul-klee\/\">hand-painted reproductions of Paul Klee paintings<\/a> on canvas in the size you choose. Many of the originals are small works on paper, gauze or board; we paint them in oil or acrylic on canvas, often much larger, so they hang on the wall like any painting. Ad Parnassum is offered only from 95 x 75 cm, because its thousands of dots need room. Before delivery we send you a photograph of the painting to approve.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Paul Klee (1879\u20131940) was a Swiss-born German painter and draughtsman, a gifted violinist from childhood and a teacher at the Bauhaus, whose small, witty works of colour and line resist every label.
