Eight Beautiful Abstract Colour Drawings by Fritz Klee (1876 – 1976) Signed & Dated 1955

These magnificent abstract organic hand drawings are ornamental compositions in bold, bright colours by the German artist Fritz Klee.

Professor Fritz Klee (1876 Würzburg – 1976 Stuttgart), was a German porcelain designer and architect, founding director, and long-time professor at the State Porcelain School in Selb. In 1910 Fritz Klee designed the exhibition space at the World Exhibition in Brussels. In 1911 Fritz Klee was appointed Royal Bavarian Professor because of his outstanding achievements. From 1917 to 1922 Klee was also the artistic director of the porcelain factory art department at Lorenz Hutschenreuther A.G., for which he made a large number of designs until 1939. In 1939 Prof. Fritz Klee left Selb and the college for the porcelain industry at his own request after 31 years of hard work and success. he moved to Stuttgart with his wife Frieda. But that was not the end of his work, after this time numerous graphics were created by him, at the age of 99, the professor still practiced drawing and creating brightly coloured collages daily. Prof. Fritz Klee was 100 years old and died on December 12, 1976, in Stuttgart Germany

I bought these drawings for myself as I am always looking for vintage modern artwork that goes well with my Oceanic Art Sculptures, old and new look amazing together just as they do on the Surrealist Andre Breton’s Office Wall now on permanent display at the Pompidou Centre in Paris

See my new EXHIBITIONS GALLERY  showing the Museums and Art Galleries Exhibitions that I provided artworks for over the past 40 years. There is the link to the article about my artworks published in the prestigious Louvre Magazine in 1996

I have artwork for Museums and art Galleries but also for collectors at every stage of their collecting. I want to encourage people to explore the fine art of New Guinea & West Papua and the Pacific Islands and to be able to see and touch the artworks in a relaxed and friendly manner in my Sydney Gallery. I would like to invite you to visit my gallery and see the artworks in person and also look at my website www.oceanicartsaustralia.com where there are many Galleries & Sub Galleries to explore.

My Gallery of nearly 40 years is the last physical gallery in Sydney that specializes in New Guinea and Oceanic Art.  Sydney is very close to New Guinea & the Pacific Islands where all of these amazing artworks came from, Australia’s closest neighbors.
