Erika Giovanna Klien was one of the most important exponents of Viennese Kineticism. Her works are characterized by depictions of sequences of movement composed out of geometric forms. On the threshold between non-representational and figurative art, Diving Bird evokes the impression of a smooth wingbeat by capturing each moment of the bird’s swoop in a fanned array of forms and colors. Movement is dissected into its separate stages as if seen in slow motion. Rhythm, speed, and motion remained key themes in Klien’s art after she emigrated to the USA in 1929. It was here that she created her Diving Bird in 1939.
