During the last years of his life the Swiss artist Paul Klee (1879-1940) developed a unique form of visual language he termed ‘pictorial writing’. Dr Chris Pike will explore these works in the light of ancient writing systems, and esoteric methods of interpretation (such as Kaballah). With special reference to the painting Park bei Lu (1938), he will pose the question: do Klee’s works read us as much as we read them?
