Above Anni and Josef Albers. Bauhaus artists hugely influential within abstact art and design. Lived in America, after leaving Germany, for much of their lives where they worked as eduators as well as artists, designers and makers. I partigularly love The Grid Picture from 1921, JA. Also shown The Free-Hanging Room Divider from 1949, AA. Anni was kept from painting, as were all women, at the Bauhaus but made weaving a strong and inventive medium in it's stead.
I suppose in the experiment below I was inspired by the wire gridding of the squares and the interweaving of the elements in the different pieces above. No doubt more experiments will follow as I study their work.
