As the wife of L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Moholy-Nagy, she lived with him at the Bauhaus and carried out important work for numerous Bauhaus artists as well as for the institution itself in his shadow. She played a crucial role in bringing the school\u2019s artistic ideas and substance to the public.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The exhibition is devoted to the entire oeuvre of the artist: beside documentary photographs of workshop work and portrait series of Bauhaus teachers and friends, photographs of Bauhaus buildings in Dessau constitute the focal aspects of her work. Revolutionary in her approach, Lucia Moholy considered photography and painting to be of equal value; her architectural photographs emerge as constructivist images. Although Lucia Moholy was not employed at the Bauhaus, through her photographs she has contributed significantly to establishing the fame and reputation of the art school. It is the high quality of her photographs, owing much to Moholy\u2019s adept handling of the technical aspects of photography, that enabled a hitherto unprecedented marketing of the Bauhaus idea as a social and, above all, aesthetic movement.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lucia Moholy continues to be overshadowed by L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Moholy-Nagy; in the exhibition, she is presented as an artist in her own right. Particular attention is paid to Lucia Moholy\u2019s time in Berlin. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Curators: Thomas Derda, Dr. Tobias Hoffmann, Fabian Reifferscheidt M.A.<br>Exhibition design: Katleen Arthen<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Sponsored by the LOTTO-Stiftung Berlin as part of the Berlin program for the Triennale der Moderne, 2022, <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"http:\/\/www.triennale-der-moderne.de\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"www.triennale-der-moderne.de\" target=\"_blank\">www.triennale-der-moderne.de<\/a><br>Media partners: Wall GmbH, rbb Kultur, Dinamix, tip, Exberliner.<br>The exhibition is accompanied by a catalog published by the Wienand Verlag.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Advertising motif: Lucia Moholy, Bauhaus building Dessau by Walter Gropius (architect), workshop facade, 1926, detail, Bauhaus Archive Berlin \u00a9 VG Bild-Kunst, Bonn 2022.
