About At the Core

The artwork entitled “At the Core” is a creation by the artist Paul Klee dated 1935. This piece is executed in oil on board and is considered to be within the Expressionist movement, more specifically characterized as abstract. “At the Core” currently resides in a private collection, having been privately acquired by an individual or entity.

In the artwork, one observes a series of concentric circles or rings that convey a sense of depth and movement towards a central point. The texture within these bands alternates between smooth gradients and patches of textured application of paint, creating an effect that both invites the eye inward and suggests a complexity beneath the surface. The central area features a small circle with a distinct red drop-like shape at its center, contrasting sharply with the surrounding earthy tones. The use of color is somewhat subdued yet purposeful, with a restricted palette that emphasizes the concentric design. Overall, the artwork conveys a sense of harmony and focus, as the rings lead to the central element, which could be interpreted as the ‘core’ referred to in the title.
