About the Item

Silkscreen on vélin paper. Inscription: Signed in the plate and unnumbered, as issued. Paper Size: 8 x 6 inches. Notes: From the album, Paul Klee, Paintings Watercolors 1913 to 1939, 1941. Published by Oxford University Press, New York; printed by Creative Printmakers Group, New York, under the direction of Anthony Velonis, New York, 1941. Excerpted from the album, Copyright by Nierendorf Gallery, New York, 1941. The two plates in color are serigraphs, printed by the Creative Printmakers Group, New York. The plates were printed by the Fredrick Photogelatine Press, New York. Typography by H. K. Poster, New York. PAUL KLEE (1879-1940) was a Swiss-born German artist. His highly individual style was influenced by movements in art that included expressionism, cubism, and surrealism. Klee was a natural draftsman who experimented with and eventually deeply explored color theory, writing about it extensively; his lectures Writings on Form and Design Theory (Schriften zur Form und Gestaltungslehre), published in English as the Paul Klee Notebooks, are held to be as important for modern art as Leonardo da Vinci's A Treatise on Painting was for the Renaissance. He and his colleague, Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, both taught at the Bauhaus school of art, design and architecture in Germany. His works reflect his dry humor and his sometimes childlike perspective, his personal moods and beliefs, and his musicality. Klee was in the milieu of Picasso.

1930s Modernist Print by Hilaire Hiler: Indian with Bow in Fox Costume Artwork
By Hilaire Hiler
Located in Denver, CO
This vintage 1934 color serigraph (silkscreen print) by Hilaire Hiler (1898-1966) depicts a Native American figure dressed in a fox costume and holding a bow, showcasing a stylized feather headdress and bold black, red, and white color contrasts. Created during the WPA era, this modernist print reflects Hiler's semi-abstract approach to Native American themes.

About the Artist, Hilaire Hiler: Hilaire Hiler was an influential New Mexico artist known for his modernist style and exploration of Native American subjects.
