About the Item

Artist: Josef Albers, German (1888 - 1976) (After) Title: "Homage to the Square : Sentinel 1967" From New Paintings NY First edition Year: 1968 Medium: Screenprint Edition Size: Unknoun, presumed small edition Image Size: 7.5 x 7.5 Inches over all with borders: 8.5 x 10.5 inches Frame Size Approx.: 15 x 17 inches Condition: In excellent condition First Edition. Small oblong quarto. Thin catalogue for Albers's exhibition New Paintings at Sidney Janis, April 10 - May 4, 1968. Four "Homage to the Square" Josef Albers was an American-German artist best known for his iconic color square paintings, also know as his Homage to the Square series. These works, along with his writings, are considered invaluable contributions to color theory. “Simultaneous contrast is not just a curious optical phenomenon—it is the very heart of painting,” Albers once explained of color relationships. “Repeated experiments with adjacent colors will show that any ground subtracts its own hue from the colors which it carries and therefore influences.” Born on March 19, 1888 in Bottrop, Germany, he was a student of the famed colorist Johannes Itten at the Bauhaus in Weimar. Joining the Bauhaus in 1922 as a stained glass maker, he later became a professor at the Dessau location of the school in 1925. It was during this time that Albers took over Itten’s course and co-taught with László Moholy-Nagy, alongside other members of the faculty Paul Klee and Wassily Kandinksy. Emigrating to the United States after the Nazi regime closed the Bauhaus school in 1933, Phillip Johnson, a curator at The Museum of Modern Art, found positions for both Albers and his wife Anni Albers at the experimental Black Mountain College in North Carolina. He served as the head of the painting program at the school from 1939–1949, teaching Cy Twombly and Robert Rauschenberg, among others. After his time at Black Mountain College, Albers became the head of the design program at Yale University during the 1950s. Published in 1963, his book Interaction of Color remains one of the most influential texts used in contemporary arts education. The artist died on March 25, 1976 in New Haven, CT at the age of 88. Today, Albers’s works are held in the collections of The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Art Institute of Chicago, the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., and the Tate Gallery in London, among others.
