paul klee
Paul Klee (Switzerland, Münchenbuchsee 1879-1940 Locarno) Drawing for KN the Forger (Zeichnung zu KN der Schmid), 1922 Pencil on paper, mounted by the artist 25.6 x 31 cm Signed upper left; signed, dated, numbered and bearing a mark by the artist on the mount Provenance: Gustav Kahnweiler (Mayor Gallery), London; Curt Valentin (Buchholz Gallery), Berlin-New York, 1952; Herbert Einstein, London; Galerie d'Art Moderne, Basel; Galerie Jean-Pierre Durand, Geneva; Berggruen & Cie, Paris, January 1970; Notizie Arte Contemporanea, Turin; Acquis auprès de cette dernière galerie par le propriétaire actuel; Aste Bolaffi, vente aux enchères du 13 mai 2025, lot 92; Galerie Ronny Van de Velde Literature: W. Grohmann, Paul Klee, Handzeichnungen 1921–1930, Potsdam, 1934, n° 57; The Paul Klee Foundation (éd.), Paul Klee, Catalogue raisonné, tome III, 1919–1922, Berne, 1999, n° 3020, p. 451 (illustré) Produced in 1922, Drawing for KN the Smith is regarded as a beautiful testament to the close friendship between Klee and Kandinsky. The drawing is a study for the painting of the same name, which Klee also created in 1922 and which was owned by Nina Kandinsky (now part of the Kandinsky Collection at the Centre Georges Pompidou in Paris). This work contains elements of Klee’s unique ability to convey lightness through childlike imagery, such as the almost caricatured figure that brings both the drawing and the painting to life in a dreamy, elegant manner. The date is also significant: Klee began teaching at the Bauhaus in January 1921, and Kandinsky joined in December of the same year. In 1922, both artists exhibited works at the First Thuringian Exhibition at the Landesmuseum in Weimar. A friendship developed between the two artists, considered one of the most fascinating of the twentieth century.
