-- ABOUT THE ARTWORK THAT INSPIRED THIS RUG:
A red fire glows as a magnet in a desert at the end of the day, recalling Paul Klee’s trip to Egypt in the winter of 1928-29. A striated composition, born from the cliffs and fields of the Nile Valley.
The way in which the vertical intersections carry the weight and distribute the density of the piece reminds us of Klee’s lecture at the Bauhaus years before, on December 12, 1921:
“A Sense of Equilibrium, an element of artistic creation…When the base widens, the horizontal widens with it at the expense of the vertical. A very considerable relaxation occurs then, an epic moment in relationship to the dramatic character of the vertical. Which obviously does not exclude an evaluation of the thrusts from each side of the axis. The vertical is always present! The weight of the forces is only excluded at the moment the diagonal disappears and the balance is immobilized, as, for example, in the case of the most primitive rhythm of the structure in which only horizontals or verticals are present.”
-- ABOUT PAUL KLEE:
““Color is the place where our brain and the universe meet.” Paul Klee
Swiss artist Paul Klee was born on December 18th, 1879. Art played a strong role since his childhood, particularly music. He studied in Munich, Germany, and later settled in Bern, Switzerland. After marrying pianist Lily Stumpf, they moved to Munich again. There he met great avant-garde artists, such as Jawlensky, Kandinsky, Marc and Macke, and successfully exposed his work.
During his travels, he gained revelatory insights and art influences. In Paris, he met Delaunay and became more familiar with Braque’s and Picasso’s work. In Tunisia, he fell in love with colour, making it a core point of his art afterwards.
Klee was a teacher at the acclaimed Bauhaus School from 1921 to 1936, both in Weimar and Dessau. During this time, he grew closer to Kandinsky and Feininger. His art was being recognized and exhibited in the United States and France, as well as Germany. When the Nazis closed the Bauhaus in 1933, Klee moved back to Switzerland, where he passed away on June 29th, 1940.

(after) Paul Klee
Paul Klee (1879 – 1940) was a Swiss-German artist whose highly individual style was influenced by art movements including 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" for the Renaissance. He and his colleague, Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, both taught at the Bauhaus school of art, design and architecture. He generally worked in isolation from his peers, and interpreted new art trends in his own way. He was inventive in his methods and technique, experimenting in a huge array of different media. His works reflect an emotional lyricism, and he was unafraid to approach his expressions from a perspective of childlike innocence. They frequently allude to poetry, music and dreams, and sometimes even include words, symbols or musical notation. His extensive legacy comprises about 9,000 works of art.

-- About the artwork on which this rug is based:
Mondrian was best known for this type of abstract painting in which he limited his palette to the primary colors and black, adding gray here as well. Thick, black vertical and horizontal lines delineate the outlines of the rectangles of color. The painting creates a harmony of contrasts depicting the balance and at the same time the tension of dynamic forces.
-- About Piet Mondrian:
“The more basic the color, the more inward, the more pure.” Piet Mondrian
Piet Mondrian was a Dutch artist who revolutionized the art world with his abstract works.
His development as an artist was a journey from traditional landscapes and still-life paintings to the geometric purity of neoplasticism.
