Fokus: Cover Star Klee
Why do so many – hundreds, if not thousands of – books of twentieth century philosophy, psychotherapy or critical theory feature the art of Paul Klee on their covers? Cover Star Klee draws a portrait of the artist as a prophet of analogue meme culture, which invites us to judge a book by its cover.

Curator: Dieter Roelstraete
