Original Exhibition Poster Klee & Kandinsky, Galerie Berggruen by Jacomet, Paris

About the Item

Original poster from 1960s by the prestigious Galerie Berggruen in Paris, printed on the occasion of the exhibition of works by Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinsky. The poster shows Paul Klee's watercolor Specter d'un Guerrier from 1930. The poster printed by Jacomet in Paris. Wassily Kandinsky (1866 - 1944) was a Russian painter, graphic artist and art theorist. He is a pioneer of abstract art. He graduated in law and economics from the University of Moscow, but since childhood he was interested in art and music. Fascinated by the work of Claude Monet, he decided to study at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. Later he went to Waimar, where he was a lecturer at the Bauhaus university for 3 years. In addition to theoretical lectures, he also had a painting studio. He traveled a lot all the time, drawing inspiration and observations from emerging new forms of art. Eventually he settled permanently in Paris. Kandinsky focused on the basic colors red-yellow-blue and the basic shapes circle-triangle-square. He was the author not only of many theoretical and autobiographical works, but also of woodcuts, gouaches, watercolors, and paintings on glass. However, he owed his fame primarily to large abstract compositions. Paul Klee (1879 - 1940) was a Swiss-German painter, graphic artist and illustrator. He studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. There he also met Kandinsky. He created using watercolors, ink and oil paints. He was inspired by expressionism, cubism and surrealism but created his own style. He was fascinated by color theory, abstract forms and shapes, music and poetry. His early works depicted portraits, landscapes and still lifes. As his career progressed, his works became more abstract and symbolic. Work in original vintage condition. A slight stain at the bottom of the sheet. The frame shows signs of use.

  • Joan Miró, Exhibition Poster Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, Nowy Jork, Framed
    By Joan Miró
    Located in Warszawa, Mazowieckie
    The poster from the 1953 exhibition of Joan Miró's work at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York. Printed in Italy in 1986 by Arti Grafiche Ricordi. Poster by Joan Miró, a Catalan painter, sculptor and ceramicist. The surrealist master is one of the most important Spanish artists of the 20th century and one of the greatest artists of contemporary art. A picture is made of brushstrokes, just as a poem is made of words. - Joan Miró Miró's works are interpreted as belonging to surrealism, as an expression of a return to childhood and as sandboxes for the subconscious. The Miró style consists of vivid colors combined with simplified forms, reminiscent of drawings of a small child. Initially, Miró created in various fashionable styles, for example, Fauvist and Cubist. In 1920 he traveled to Paris several times, and a year later he settled there permanently. He met Pablo Picasso, Vasily Kandinsky and many other outstanding artists. In 1924 he joined the surrealists of André Breton's circle, but - despite the fact that he worked under their influence - he remained on the outskirts of this trend, maintaining the position of an outsider. Influenced by Surrealist poets and writers, he began to develop his own style: a map of weightless colored signs and poetic forms that evoke both the seemingly naive freshness of invention and the exuberant and baroque Catalan...
