It doesn't happen often: a Museum for the artist Paul Klee, monothematic, built just for this museum. It will cost a lot, but it's admirable courage (and having enough money)

A beautiful building seamlessly merging into its context. What I appreciated most is the attention and dedication for kids activities and involving them into the world of Paul Klee.

Great exhibition in 10 American painters, especially G. Dawis and M. Rothko impressed me.

Excellent layout and exceptional description of the life and techniques used by the artist. A truly fine venue to showcase such an artist.

It has a beautiful building and an extensive collection of Klee. They only display a small portion of the collection at one time. They do not have an exhibit of his best works. Although Klee is not my favorite artist, I've like quite a few of his works. Right now they have an exhibition that didn't have a single work that I liked in the least. Other than the Wi-Fi and bathrooms, it was a waste of $40.
