Bauhaus Photography.

Taken in Ascona in 1926 when Moholy and his wife the photographer Lucia Moholy spent a holiday there with the family of Oskar Schlemmer, the composition of this photograph reflects Moholy"s interest in diagonal lines, space and floating forms. (Author: Andreas Haus, Moholy-Nagy Photographs and Photograms, p. 61).

The legacy of Hungarian artist Laszlo Moholy-Nagy is among the most cherished in the lineage of photographic art, and he can be defined as a visionary whose radical experiments with photography entirely re-imagined the possibilities for the medium. Working in the early 20th century when photography was not considered a form of high art, Moholy-Nagy actively sought to break down boundaries and find new languages of photographic discourse. In doing so, he left behind an oeuvre of visual ideas that have provided artistic license to a century’s worth of photographers to experiment boldly beyond the conventional definitions of what photography is expected to be.
