Trained at the Bauhaus in Weimar, Anni Albers found in textiles the language to develop her aesthetic ideas and her artistic work based on the tactility of materials and geometric forms. Married to Josef Albers in 1925, they emigrated to the United States fleeing the pressure of the Nazi party, and both became part of the famous Black Mountain College until 1949, the year in which Anni Albers would be the first textile artist to have an individual exhibition at MoMA in New York. Along with textile materials, graphic work would be her other fundamental medium. Her numerous trips to Mexico influenced her work focused on experimentation with geometry, the interaction of colors, the textures of materials, scales, patterns and rhythms of geometric forms and patterns. Her greatest achievement is having blurred the separation between artistic and craft objects. As in the case of many other women artists, Anni Albers has been receiving greater recognition in recent years.
