Marcel Franciscono offers an exhaustive historical and critical
study of Klee's artistic personality and thought. Drawing
extensively on documentation published since 1940, Franciscono
highlights the extraordinary range of artistic, literary, and
philosophical speculation Klee brought to his work. The portrait
that emerges is one of a great comic artist, an ironist whose most
characteristic pictures pit beauty of form and color against the
dubious nature of things, yet one whose satiric depictions of
everyday life extend to the most rarified evocations of nature.
"There is no comparable book in the recent Klee literature. Marcel
Franciscono introduces the reader to the artist and, in turn, to
all the major Klee problems uncovered by specialists working in one
or another area of the master's work. The result is a rich
symposium in which all these opinions, as well as the relevant
biographical facts, are returned to individual works of art,
illuminating them exquisitely. In this low-keyed fashion emerges
the splendid general study that is required of every generation for
a great artist."--Daniel Robbins, Union College
