Frases de Paul Klee
Paul Klee
Data de nascimento: 18. Dezembro 1879
Data de falecimento: 29. Junho 1940
Paul Klee foi um pintor e poeta suíço naturalizado alemão. O seu estilo, grandemente individual, foi influenciado por várias tendências artísticas diferentes, incluindo o expressionismo, cubismo, e surrealismo. Ele foi um estudante do orientalismo. Klee era um desenhista nato que realizou experimentos e dominou a teoria das cores, sobre o quê ele escreveu extensivamente. Suas obras refletem seu humor seco e, às vezes, a sua perspectiva infantil, seus ânimos e suas crenças pessoais, e sua musicalidade. Ele e o pintor russo Wassily Kandinsky, seu amigo, também eram famosos por darem aulas na escola de arte e arquitetura Bauhaus.

„Art does not reproduce what we see. It makes us see.“
Section I
(de) Kunst gibt nicht das Sichtbare wieder, sondern macht sichtbar.
1916 - 1920, Creative Credo (1920)
Variante: Art does not reproduce the visible; rather, it makes visible.
Section V
1916 - 1920, Creative Credo (1920)
Contexto: Formerly we used to represent things visible on earth, things we either liked to look at or would have liked to see. Today we reveal the reality that is behind visible things, thus expressing the belief that the visible world is merely an isolated case in relation to the universe and that there are many more other, latent realities. Things appear to assume a broader and more diversified meaning, often seemingly contradicting the rational experience of yesterday. There is a striving to emphasize the essential character of the accidental.

Nature is garrulous to the point of confusion, let the artist be truly taciturn.
