Paul Klee
Paul Klee fused abstraction, line, and musical rhythm into intimate, experimental paintings and works on paper. A Bauhaus master, he explored color theory, playful symbols, and grid-like structures that feel both scholarly and whimsical. In the Vatican Museums’ Collection of Modern Art, his “Abstract Composition (Red Green Frame)” represents the dialogue between modernism and sacred context.
