At 28, Mati Klarwein painted Annunciation, which Carlos Santana later discovered and used as the iconic cover for his 1970 album Abraxas. Known for his fusion of Latin rock, jazz, and blues, Santana found Klarwein’s work, a mix of psychedelic and spiritual elements, a perfect visual match for his genre-blending music. Klarwein’s visually experimental art style became globally recognizable, and later appeared on albums like Miles Davis’s Bitches Brew, Earth, Wind and Fire’s Last Days and Time, and Jackie McLean’s Demon’s Dance, amongst others, cementing his influence in the world of music and art alike.
