Bauhaus Exhibition Highlights Women Photographers' Contributions
A new exhibition titled 'New Woman, New Vision: Women Photographers of the Bauhaus' is set to open at the Museum für Fotografie in Berlin. The exhibition aims to shed light on the often-overlooked contributions of women photographers associated with the Bauhaus school, which was active from 1919 to 1933. Curated by Kristin Bartels, the exhibition features around 300 photographs from the Bauhaus-Archiv/Museum für Gestaltung's collection. It includes works by 29 photographers, many of whom were affiliated with the original Bauhaus in Germany and the New Bauhaus in Chicago. The exhibition seeks to challenge the myth that women at the Bauhaus were confined to weaving, highlighting their roles in various departments, including photography. Notable photographers featured include Lucia Moholy, Ellen Auerbach, and Florence Henri, among others.
