אני אלברס (1899-1994)

 
<div>"Untitled”, a rare and intimate mixed media on paper piece by Anni Albers, was a personal gift to its owner, Katherine Weber, wife of Albers Foundation president Nicholas Fox Weber, presented during a visit in Connecticut. Never offered for sale, this artwork stands apart from Albers’ renowned textile creations, showcasing her versatility as an abstract artist. Created with a delicate interplay of pencil, ink, and watercolor, the composition features geometric shapes and subtle color gradients that dance across the surface, reflecting her inventive exploration of form and texture. This piece, likely from her later career, highlights her shift toward printmaking and drawing after 1963, moving beyond the pictorial weavings of the 1950s. </div> <br> <br><div> </div> <br> <br><div>Born in Berlin and trained at the Bauhaus in the 1920s, where she later taught, Albers pioneered avant-garde textile designs blending functionality with bold abstractions. Her time at Black Mountain College and trips to Mexico exposed her to pre-Columbian art, influencing her use of forgotten techniques and abstract motifs, as seen in simplified and intuitive form in our work. Its intimate scale and personal provenance lend it a unique charm, contrasting with her larger public commissions. This piece offers a window into the experimental spirit that marks Albers’ legacy within 20th-century art and design. </div> <div>"Untitled”, a rare and intimate mixed media on paper piece by Anni Albers, was a personal gift to its owner, Katherine Weber, wife of Albers Foundation president Nicholas Fox Weber, presented during a visit in Connecticut.

ניו בריטן, קונטיקט, מוזיאון ניו בריטן לאמנות אמריקאית, בחוט ועל נייר: אני אלברס בקונטיקט, 19 במרץ - 13 בספטמבר, 2020
"ללא כותרת", יצירת אמנות נדירה ואינטימית במדיה מעורבת על נייר מאת אני אלברס, הייתה מתנה אישית לבעליה, קתרין וובר, אשתו של נשיא קרן אלברס, ניקולס פוקס וובר, שהוצגה במהלך ביקור בקונטיקט. יצירת אמנות זו, שמעולם לא הוצעה למכירה, בולטת מיצירותיה הטקסטיליות המפורסמות של אלברס, ומציגה את הרבגוניות שלה כאמנית מופשטת. הקומפוזיציה, שנוצרה באמצעות משחק גומלין עדין של עיפרון, דיו וצבעי מים, כוללת צורות גיאומטריות ומעברי צבע עדינים הרוקדים על פני השטח, ומשקפת את חקירתה היצירתית של צורה ומרקם. יצירה זו, ככל הנראה מהקריירה המאוחרת שלה, מדגישה את המעבר שלה לכיוון הדפס ורישום לאחר 1963, ומעבר לאריגות הציוריות של שנות ה-50.





אלברס, שנולדה בברלין והתמחתה בבאוהאוס בשנות ה-20, שם לימדה מאוחר יותר, הייתה חלוצה בעיצובי טקסטיל אוונגרדיים, המשלבים פונקציונליות עם הפשטות נועזות. תקופתה במכללת בלק מאונטיין וטיוליה למקסיקו חשפה אותה לאמנות פרה-קולומביאנית, והשפיעה על השימוש שלה בטכניקות נשכחות ובמוטיבים מופשטים, כפי שניתן לראות בצורה פשוטה ואינטואיטיבית בעבודותינו. קנה המידה האינטימי שלה ומקורה האישי מעניקים לה קסם ייחודי, בניגוד להזמנות הציבוריות הגדולות יותר שלה. יצירה זו מציעה הצצה לרוח הניסויית המאפיינת את מורשתה של אלברס באמנות ובעיצוב של המאה ה-20.
