Anni & Josef Albers

The book "Anni & Josef Albers" offers a comprehensive visual biography of the two significant pioneers of modern art and design. Josef Albers, a painter, designer, and teacher, along with Anni Albers, a textile artist and printmaker, are among the most influential abstract artists of the 20th century. This monograph is the first to honor the creative work and fascinating relationship of these two masters in an elegant volume. It documents their life and artistic journey from their formative years at the Bauhaus in Germany to their remarkable influence at Black Mountain College in the USA. The book includes over 750 artworks, archival images, and documents, many of which are published here for the first time. It is complemented by short essays on the Albers' relationships with significant artists and architects of the 20th century. The attractively designed hardcover edition reflects the aesthetics of both artists and showcases their dynamic lives and the profound impact they had on each other.
