{"product_id":"moholy-nagy-book-matthew-s-witkovsky-9780300214796","title":"Moholy-Nagy","description":"An unprecedented study of an important 20th-century artist and his diverse body of work This exceptional book offers a fresh and extensive examination of the work of pioneering artist Laszlo Moholy-Nagy (1895-1946). The first major American survey of his oeuvre in nearly a half century and the most extensive English-language book on the artist in thirty years, the catalogue offers an integrated presentation of Moholy's production across a range of art forms including painting, sculpture, photography, graphic design, film, advertising, and theater. Distinguished scholars offer new insights into Moholy's materials and working methods; the relation among writing, administration, and art making in his practice; and his influence on contemporary art. Particular emphasis is given to Moholy's American years and his leadership of the Chicago Bauhaus as well as his reception as a painter. Over 300 works are illustrated in color, including the artist's early paintings and photograms, his whimsical photomontages---all of which are reproduced together here for the first time---and late works in Plexiglas. Beautifully designed and produced, with a PVC plastic jacket printed on the inside and a foil stamped casewrap, the book is a marvelous tribute to this phenomenally innovative artist.","brand":"WoB","offers":[{"title":"US \/ GOOD \/ SBYB","offer_id":50346732749073,"sku":"CIN0300214790G","price":0.0,"currency_code":"CHF","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0784\/4072\/6801\/files\/0300214790.jpg?v=1751196269","url":"https:\/\/www.worldofbooks.com\/de-ch\/products\/moholy-nagy-buch-matthew-s-witkovsky-9780300214796","provider":"World of Books ","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
