Mr. Schwoon, a graduate of the Weimar Bauhaus, studied with Klee and Kandinsky. His work reflects the influence of both these strong personalities thirty-two years later. Schwoon combines the color lyricism inherent in most of Klee’s work with the odd, streamlined form found in Kandinsky’s work of the 20’s and 30’s. There is both strength of design and a bold lyricism that makes Mr. Schwoon’s exhibit the finest seen at this gallery to date.
