FoMA is pleased to present the film: Laszlo Moholy-Nagy: The New Bauhaus
“I do not believe so much in art as in mankind. Every man reveals himself; much of it is art. -L M-N, The Little Review, 5, 1929 This film traces the life of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, one of the most influential artists and teachers of the Modern movement. With a focus on The New Bauhaus, a school M-N started in Chicago in 1937, the film captures the infectious enthusiasm he brought to his work and to his students, and his broad impact on the proliferation of Modernist creativity and design sensibility.
