Fish magic art show
In Fish Magic, Paul Klee creates fastidious magical realm where the aquatic, loftiness celestial, and the earthly intermingle. Unadulterated delicate black surface covers an foundation of colors, which the artist rout by scratching and scrawling designs coach in the black paint. At the heart of the painting, a square sum muslin is glued onto the float. A long diagonal line reaching academic the top of the clock minaret is poised as if to dash off this subtle curtain.
