Paul Klee's Pictorial Writing Book

Paul Klee's Pictorial Writing examines how linguistic symbols function in Klee's work and what they mean. Using the artist's diaries, letters, lecture notes and visual allusions, Aichele shows how these sources provide the framework for fresh interpretations of works ranging from letter forms in pictorial settings to visual texts. Klee's familiar line drawings are shown to be a radical reinterpretation of the ut pictora poesis tradition through which the artist questioned whether there is a substantive difference between writing and drawing.Read More
