A "Bauhaus Road Trip" Image I created.

I will be traveling with AIGA Boston to visit the Bauhaus exhibit at MoMA-NYC. I am really excited because I only have a limited knowledge of the Bauhaus and I am excited to see some of the pieces which are on loan from Germany. Here is a snippit from the MoMA website:

This survey is MoMA’s first major exhibition since 1938 on the subject of this famous and influential school of avant-garde art. The exhibition gathers over four hundred works that reflect the broad range of the school’s productions, including industrial design, furniture, architecture, graphics, photography, textiles, ceramics, theater design, painting, and sculpture, many of which have never before been exhibited in the United States. It includes not only works by the school’s famous faculty and best-known students including Anni Albers, Josef Albers, Herbert Bayer, Marianne Brandt, Marcel Breuer, Lyonel Feininger, Walter Gropius, Vasily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, László Moholy-Nagy, Lucia Moholy, Lilly Reich, Oskar Schlemmer, and Gunta Stölzl but also a broad range of works by innovative but less well-known students, suggesting the collective nature of ideas. – MoMA Website

I worked with our AIGA-Boston President Suzanne to organize this trip and I am really excited. If you are in the area and you want to join us you can register for the event HERE.

You can also see the event info on the AIGA-Boston website.

I also enjoyed the reviews about the exhibit in the New York Times and  Design Observer.
