Description

Anni Albers: A Groundbreaking Artist's Contribution to Modernism This landmark publication offers a long-overdue reassessment of Anni Albers' significant influence on 20th-century modern art and design. Despite her pioneering work, her contribution has often been overlooked in favour of that of her husband Josef. The book features a range of Albers' most important works, including wall hangings, designs for commercial use, drawings and studies, jewelry, and prints, showcasing her skill as a weaver, material awareness, and deep understanding of art and design. International experts provide essays on key works and themes, relating aspects of her practice to her seminal texts On Designing and On Weaving. Illuminating Albers' significance as an artist in her own right, this publication celebrates the timeless nature of her creativity and highlights the importance of her contribution to modernist art history.
