Edward Hopper paintings struggled for recognition in the 1910s. They were exhibited in a variety of New York group shows, primarily the painting titled Sailing. Paintings done in the medium of etching brought immediate sales success.
It was in 1920 that Edward Hopper was able to put up his first one-man exhibition. Thanks to his patron, Gertrude Vanderbilt Whitney, who was also the founder of the Whitney Studio Club, where the exhibit was held. However not one of the 16 Edward Hopper paintings was sold. Still the exhibition is considered a symbolic milestone in the career of the then thirty seven year old painter.
Conversely, the second one-man exhibition of Edward at the Frank K.M. Rehn Gallery in New York, a few years later, was a resounding success. Each one of the Edward Hopper paintings presented was sold. As an artist, Edward suddenly found himself in a more prosperous and prominent position after this commercial triumph.
During the course of his career, Paul Klee was considered to be one of the leading forces in many of the various art movements he participated in. Among other art forms, Paul Klee paintings were chiefly exhibitions of expressionism, cubism and surrealism. During the later part of his long career, Paul also worked as an art instructor, for some time.
Paul shifted his attention from music to the visual art forms during his teen years. It was in 1905 that he developed a unique art style, involving the drawing on a blackened pane of glass with the use of a needle. This style enabled Paul to create magnificent depth and texture for his designed pieces. Between 1903 and 1905, Paul Klee paintings, in the form of a set of etchings called Inventions, was the centrepiece for his first art exhibit.
Paul Klee paintings progressed to new art forms in the next five years. Paul began to delve on experimentations, in general, as well as water colors. Paul started working on abstract art in 1914, after being inspired by light exhibits he witnessed in Tunisia.
