About
Why this artist matters now
Felix Klee was a German painter and printmaker whose postwar practice pursued geometric abstraction and color theory through systematic formal investigation. Working in oil and lithography, he developed compositions that balanced rigorous color relationships with gestural mark-making, moving deliberately away from his father Paul Klee's lyrical approach. His work emerged from the reconstruction of modernist abstraction in the decades following 1945, establishing an independent visual language grounded in chromatic order and controlled gesture.
