More about this artwork

Welcome to a glimpse of Paul Klee's intriguing artistic vision, presented in his piece titled "Postcard on the occasion of the ‘Lofty person’ exhibition at Bauhaus, 1923." This painting invites us into a world where abstraction and symbolism beautifully converge.At first glance, this vertical composition showcases a tower or robotic figure composed of bold, geometric blocks. Each segment is meticulously colored in primary shades of red, yellow, and blue, along with black and white, aligning with the Bauhaus school’s emphasis on primary colors and basic shapes. The upper portion features textual elements, notably the name "Weimar" and references to the Bauhaus exhibition of 1923.The character seems dynamic, almost playful, constructed from various shapes that suggest body parts or functional components. A face-like form sits atop, completing the figure with a cryptic, sun-like element. The playful use of geometry emphasizes the amalgamation of art and design—a central theme in Bauhaus philosophy.This Klee creation not only represents a significant artistic endeavor but also acts as a historical document, capturing the essence of a groundbreaking era in the art world.

Paul Klee was a Swiss-born German artist. His highly individual style was influenced by movements in art that included expressionism, cubism, and surrealism. Klee was a natural draftsman who experimented with and eventually deeply explored color theory, writing about it extensively; his lectures Writings on Form and Design Theory (Schriften zur Form und Gestaltungslehre), published in English as the Paul Klee Notebooks, are held to be as important for modern art as Leonardo da Vinci's A Treatise on Painting for the Renaissance.
