Thank you so much for reading through super picture-heavy long winded review of the adorable 1/7 Klee Spark Knight Ver. figure! I hope you enjoyed it! Klee’s humorous observation of social power structures is evident in Two men meet, each assuming each other to be in a higher position (1903); The original uploader was DL5MDA at German Wikipedia., Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons In 1914, Klee traveled to Tunisia, which further fueled his inclination toward color and light. He even exclaimed that “color and I are one”. In a way, Klee was possessed by the quality of color he witnessed in Tunisia. It was here that Klee dove into the “cool Romanticism of Abstraction”. The huge Jumpty Dumpty was definitely a MUST feature for any Klee figure and they did not disappoint. The little Dodoco mines were also a perfect addition to the cute factor! To finish off with, they also added some colorful confetti to make the figure pop~

The overall look of this figure met my expectations of Apex after hearing so much high praise about them. The figure is a carbon copy of the prototype as advertised and I could never be happier with how she turned out. Paul Klee in military uniform, 1916; Deutsch: Fotograf unbekanntEnglish: Photographer unknown, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons According to Klee, one of his main aims in painting was to reveal secret visions through art. The soft, calm tones also evoke a sense of child-like drawing and suggest that, for Klee, children were closer to creativity than adults. Klee had taken much interest in the art of children and was fascinated by their use of line and shape to depict animals. More so, how children are able to reduce complex imagery into digestible, simple forms, thus evoking the purity of painting and illustration itself. Another target of the Nazis, Klee found himself being called out in a Nazi newspaper while serving at the Düsseldorf Academy. The Gestapo found their way to his home and raided it in a search – the result? He was fired from his post. By the end of 1933, also his last year in Germany, Klee created more than 500 artworks. By 1939, and after much encouragement from Kandinsky and Pablo Picasso despite his declining health, Klee delivered more than 1200 works.

From an early age, the Swiss-German artist Paul Klee was exposed to and encouraged to pursue music and became a young prodigy of the violin by age seven. In addition to music, Klee also dabbled in drawing and poetry but this was not as encouraging as a creative careeras much as music was. Im Liegen, which translates to “ Lying Down” in English, is a crayon and pencil drawing that depicts an abstract figure lying down. The figure is not entirely filled in with color and was drawn in a scratchy motion with some portions of the figure showing more emphasis than others. The figure could likely represent Klee’s state at the time, considering his condition worsened toward his last few years. The figure is also drawn with two prominent circles for eyes separated by the strong linear marking in the middle of the figure’s face that gives shape to the figure’s nose and mouth.
