EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the vibrant energy of the New Bauhaus in Chicago, Illinois, circa 1940. In the foreground, a table is adorned with tactile charts, inviting students to explore different textures and materials. To the left, a bustling modelling studio comes to life with an array of color charts adorning its walls. The New Bauhaus was renowned for its innovative approach to design education, blending elements of modernism and traditional craftsmanship. This image showcases the school's commitment to hands-on learning and experimentation. The juxtaposition of tactile charts on the table and color charts on the walls symbolizes the fusion of form and function that defined Bauhaus principles. Students were encouraged to engage all their senses when creating art or designing objects. As we delve into this snapshot from history, we catch a glimpse of sculptors meticulously shaping their creations while painters mix pigments nearby. The workshop atmosphere is palpable as creativity permeates every corner. This photograph not only documents a moment in time but also serves as a testament to the lasting impact of Bauhaus ideology on American art and design. It stands as a reminder that even decades later, these principles continue to inspire artists around the world. Captured by The Granger Collection's lens, this image offers us an intriguing window into mid-20th century artistic innovation at one of America's most influential creative institutions – The New Bauhaus in Chicago.
