Science Cafe: Art Meets Science: From Naples to Bar Harbor—Paul Klee and Marine Biology

Explore the unexpected connections between modern art, marine biology, and the roots of scientific discovery in Maine.

In 1902, artist Paul Klee visited a famous marine research lab in Naples, Italy. The vibrant sea life he saw there helped shape his artistic vision—and reflected a growing interest in how life begins. This talk looks at how those ideas crossed the Atlantic, influencing both European artists and American scientists.

Join President Hermann Haller, M.D., internationally acclaimed physician scientist and skilled art historian as we follow this creative thread all the way to the MDI Biological Laboratory, where the spirit of scientific exploration continues today.
