About Josef Albers:
Josef Albers is best known for his seminal “Homage to the Square” series of the 1950s and ’60s, which focused on the simplification of form and the interplay of shape and color. His abstract canvases employed rigid geometric compositions in order to emphasize the optical effects set off by his chosen color palettes. Albers was highly influential as a teacher, first at the Bauhaus in Germany alongside Wassily Kandinsky and Paul Klee, and later with posts at Black Mountain College, Yale, and Harvard; he taught courses in design and color theory, and counted among his students such iconic artists as Eva Hesse, Richard Anuszkiewicz, Robert Rauschenberg & Cy Twombly. Albers is often cited among the forefathers of Minimalist, Conceptual, and Op art.
