From our magnificent set of nine serigraphs printed by Trautwein KG and published by Verlag Aurel Bongers KG, Recklinghausen, Germany in 1977. This limited-edition of 1500, based upon earlier paintings by Josef Albers, was the last publication supervised by him and was published shortly after his death. Print size: 8 x 8 inches; 8-3/4 x 8-3/4 inches overall.
Born 1888 in Bottrop, Germany, Josef Albers is considered one of the most influential artists and teacher of visual arts of the 20th Century. Although Albers had studied painting, it was as a maker of stained glass that he joined the faculty of the Bauhaus in 1922, approaching this medium as a component of architecture and as an art form. After the Nazis came to power, Albers and his wife Anni, moved to the United States where he became head of Black Mountain College's Art Department from 1933 until 1950, when Albers left to head Yale University's Department of Design. There, his students included Richard Anuszkiewicz, John Chamberlain, Eva Hesse, Robert Rauschenberg, Cy Twombly, and Sewell Sillman, who became a publisher of many Albers editions. His works on paper include "Interaction of Color" (1963), "Homage to the Square" (various years), "Ten Variants" (1967), and "Formulation: Articulation" (1972). Our Gallery has Albers prints from all these editions. less
