Albers was a legendary, pioneering female German-American textile artist, printmaker and Bauhaus member. We also have a number of works by Australian-based proponents of the Bauhaus Movement included in the Museum Of Brisbane's exhibition, including Stan Ostoja Kotkowski, Frank Hinder & Laurence Hope. A significant member of Walter Gropius’ Bauhaus, Albers is perhaps the most important and well-regarded textile artist of the 20th century. She was also the wife of Josef Albers. This limited edition screenprint produced in 1969, during the limited period when Albers experimented with print media, including lithography & screenprint. The edition of this work is ed. 37/60. In fact, the following print in this run (ed. 38/60) is part of the Busch-Reisinger Museum Collection, at Harvard University, Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA!
