Paul Klee, the Swiss German painter influenced by expressionism, cubism and surrealism, also produced a number of etchings in his early years, beginning in 1903. These works, remarkable for their technical proficiency, illustrate his evolution from a traditionalist to one of modern art's most daring masters. Previously published in 1945 and 1947, this third revised edition was issued by the Museum of Modern Art and by Graphic Matter in 2013 in a limited edition of 500, printed and bound by Trifolio, Verona. It beautifully reproduces each of Klee/s prints on fine paper, which are accompanied by original texts and an updated list of plates.

One of the goals of Modernism was the presentation of the essence of art, or pure form. Encouraged by theorists, modern artists found pure form in ornament which, though promising, was sullied by connotations of materiality, domesticity, and femininity. Jenny Anger demonstrates that the decorative significantly informed Paul Klee's art. She compares his work to that of another major modernist, Henri Matisse, to confirm the critical role of the decorative in Modernism. Anger also explores the relevance of the decorative for contemporary and, especially, women artists.
