Jenny Holzer on Paul Klee in 'The Abstract Dimension'

“Park near Lu” (1938) is reproduced from Paul Klee: The Abstract Dimension, a deluxe, linen-bound treasure from the Fondation Beyeler and Hatje Cantz. Jenny Holzer writes, “I adore that Klee presented the accessible and what you will never know. He proffered not knowing as invitation to (and commemoration of) great mystery, that of his creation and your own experience and existence. He draws and paints an intermittently inscrutable come-on to ‘see’ him and, maybe in the process, you.” She goes on to quote Klee on not wanting to be fully understood. “I cannot be understood at all on this earth. For I live as much with the dead as with the unborn. Somewhat closer to the heart of creation than usual. But not nearly close enough.… I am most devout when farthest away.”
