Minimal Means Maximum Effect Josef Albers
Minimal Means Maximum Effect Josef Albers
Josef Albers (1888-1976) was one of the most important artists and educators of the 20th century. The Kaohsiung Museum of Fine Arts is now cooperating with the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation to hold the Josef Albers: Minimal, Maximum Effect exhibition, which showcases the works of this modernist master. The works on display are from the collection of the Albers Foundation, and illustrate Albers’s major creative and research achievements from various stages in his career. The works include early paintings and figurative drawings, glass art, photographs, furniture, and typeface design from his Bauhaus period, and prints, formal structural studies, color research, and his best-known Homage to the Square paintings produced after moving to the United States. Apart from about 250 works from the Albers Foundation, the exhibition also includes works by Albers’s students on loan from the Bauhaus Dessau Foundation in Germany.
Josef Albers : Minimal Means, Maximum Effect is the first time that a retrospective exhibition of Albers works will be displayed in Asia, and marks the most comprehensive retrospective exhibition of Albers’s works since a 1988 retrospective exhibition held at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, New York, in celebration of the centennial of the artist’s birth. In addition during 2009, many institutions around the world have held major commemorative exhibitions and seminars to recognize the 90th anniversary of the founding of the Bauhaus school. Albers both studies and later taught at the Bauhaus, and played a signification role as an artist and teacher at the school. Following the Bauhaus’s closure in 1933 Albers ongoing pedagogical commitment did much to popularize the ideas of the Bauhaus in the US and throughout the world. The timing of this exhibition in Kaohsiung thus holds profound backward-and forward-looking significance.
