Great Works

Description

The Swiss–German artist, Paul Klee, has been described in many ways: as a pioneer of abstract art, a master of the Bauhaus, and as the forefather of Surrealism. Alongside Wassily Kandinsky and Franz Marc, Klee deeply explored colour theory. Join Richard Stemp as he explores how Klee’s Bauhaus teachings, informed the making of this joyous work, Sinbad the Sailor.
