Developed during his time at the Bauhaus, the book emphasizes the relationship between line, form, and movement in art. Klee explores the dynamics of points, lines, and planes, showing how these elements create spatial depth and tension. He presents art as a process of understanding and expressing inner realities, blending abstraction with intuition. His work focuses on visual rhythms, the interplay of colour, and the exploration of nature and geometry as core components of artistic creation. ## Quotes - ## Notes `Concepts:` [[Art]] `Knowledge Base:` [[Books index]]
