What was Paul Klee famous for?
Paul Klee was famous for his artwork, which influenced a number of avant-garde styles. The Swiss-born German artist was a pioneer of Surrealist automatism, a way of drawing without focusing on conscious thought and instead letting lines occur automatically. He also made significant contributions to Primitivism, a style inspired by ancient techniques, and reductivism, which breaks familiar symbols down into their most basic parts. Some of Klee's most well-known works include Castle and Sun, Senecio, Cat and Bird, Fish Magic, Ad Parnassum, Angelus Novus and Flower Myth. Find a range of Paul Klee art on 1stDibs.
