Germany/USA, 1961 black cotton, linen 97 w x 114 h in (246 x 290 cm)
Anni Albers' rare weavings illustrate a synthesis of line and composition.
The clarity of her designs and the precision of the weave demonstrate Albers' adherence to Bauhaus ideals. She has said, she "let the thread do what it could." This approach both liberated and structured her works; the result is a combination of vibrancy and balance. provenance: Gift of the artist
