Condition: Sehr gut. 20th edition. Octavo. 81 pages. Original softcover. Very good condition with only minor signs of wear. Rare. Josef Albers (March 19, 1888 March 25, 1976) was a German-born American artist and educator whose work, both in Europe and in the United States, formed the basis of some of the most influential and fa…r-reaching art education programs of the 20th century. Accomplished as a designer, photographer, typographer, printmaker and poet, Albers is best remembered for his work as an abstract painter and theorist. He favored a very disciplined approach to composition. Most famous of all are the hundreds of paintings and prints that make up the series Homage to the Square. In this rigorous series, begun in 1949, Albers explored chromatic interactions with nested squares. Painting usually on Masonite, he used a palette knife with oil colors and often recorded colors used on the back of his works. Each consists of either three or four squares of solid planes of colour nested within one another, in one of four different arrangements and in square formats ranging from 406×406 mm to 1.22×1.22 m (Wikipedia).
