Moholy: An Education of the Senses

February 10 – May 9, 2010

Hungarian-American artist, László Moholy-Nagy introduced Bauhaus ideas to Chicago when he moved to the city in 1937. This exhibition, curated by Carol Ehlers, is a part of Living Modern Chicago, a city-wide celebration of the 90th anniversary of the Bauhaus. The exhibition aims to reignite interest in Moholy-Nagy, to introduce Chicagoans to his multidisciplinary process, and to examine the relevance of modernism’s life-improving message. This exhibition will inspire Chicagoans through the life of modernism’s great visionary of artistic and social change.
