To explain art - that, for Paul Klee, meant an exercise in self-analysis. So he tells us what happens in the mind of the artist in the act of composition - for what purpose he uses his materials, for which special effects are given specific definitions and dimensions. He clearly distinguishes between different degrees or levels of reality and defends the right of the artist to create his own order of reality. But this transcendental world, he is careful to point out, can not be created if the artist obeys certain rules, implicit in the natural order.
The artist must penetrate into the sources of life force - "the center of all time and space '- and only then, he has the energy and the freedom to create, with the technical means, an essential job of art. But "nothing can be rushed." Klee, with clarity and humility is not characteristic of many of his contemporaries, realized that individual effort is not enough. The last source of power in the artist is given by the company, and that is precisely what is lacking in the modern artist - "Uns trägt kein Volk '. We have no sense of community, a people for whom and with whom we work. This is the tragedy of the modern artist, and only those who are blind to their own social disunity and spiritual separation blame the artist for his modern obscurity.
Speaking here with my work, what should really express themselves in their own language, I feel a little anxious about whether I am entitled to do so and I will be able to find the right approach.
For if as a painter, I feel that I have in my possession the means to move in the other direction in which I trained, I doubt I can give the same feed as the use of words alone. But I console myself with the thought that my words are not directed to you in isolation but will complement and contextualize the impressions, perhaps still a little fuzzy, what you have already received from my photos.
If I had, to some extent, succeeded in giving this thread, I would be content and feel that I have found the justification I needed. In addition, to avoid the reproach "Do not talk, painter, painting, I will confine myself largely to shed some light on these elements of the creative process, during the growth of a work of art , are held in the subconscious. In my opinion, the real justification for the use of words by a painter would focus on stimulating a new angle, to relieve the formal element of the conscious part of the emphasis that is given and put more emphasis on content.
This is the kind of adjustment that I should find pleasure in making and that could easily tempt me to engage in a dialectical analysis. But this would mean that I should be following too closely my own inclinations and forget the fact that most of you are much more familiar with the content and form. I will therefore not be able to avoid saying something about the form.
I'll try to give you an overview of the artist's studio, and I think we will eventually reach a mutual understanding.
Because it is linked to a common ground between secular and artist when a mutual approach is possible and where the artist no longer appears as a totally separate. But, as. Be, who, like you, was taken, placed in this world of variety, and where, like you, he must find his way for better or for worse
A being who differs from you that, in that it is able to control his life by using its own specific gifts; be a perhaps happier, than the man who has not the means to creative expression and no chance of release through the creation of form.
This advantage should easily be modest given the artist. He has enough problems in other respects. Can I use a comparison, the comparison of the tree? The artist has studied the world of variety and, presumably, quietly found its way into her. His sense of direction has brought order into the flow passage of the image and experience. This sense of direction in nature and life, the branching and distribution of Table I will compare with the root of the tree.
Root sap circulates artist, flows through it, flowing in his eyes. So it looks like the trunk of the tree. Battered and shaken by the force of the flow, he molds his vision in his work. As in the sight of the world, the crown of the tree unfolds and spreads in time and space, so with his work.
No claim that the tree grows its crown in the image of its root. Between above and below can not be a reflection mirror. It is obvious that the different functions expanding in the different elements should produce key differences. But it is fair to the artist who sometimes denied the departures of nature as its artistic requirements. It has even been accused of incompetence and deliberate distortion.
