Preliminary Programme

About the painting “Hauptweg und Nebenwege”

The designs for GAP.12 feature the painting “Hauptweg und Nebenwege” (“Main Path and Side Paths”) by Swiss-born German artist Paul Klee. He created the painting in 1929. Klee taught at the Bauhaus in Dessau (1921–31) and was professor at Düsseldorf’s Art Academy (1931–33) till the Nazis fired him from his job and the Klee family emigrated to Switzerland.

More information on the painting can be found here; for more information on Paul Klee have a look here. The poster for GAP.12 is available here.
