Examines social, cultural and political events in Europe, 1900-1940, as a context for understanding the works of Klee and Kandinsky; considers the two artists in relation to the Munich Academy and the Bauhaus; examines their links to avant-garde groups and movements such as the Blaue Reiter, Dada, Surrealism, and German Expressionism; also chronicles their struggles against Nazi censors.
