Finding 27:  Moholy-Nagy Exhibition Catalogue

In 1947 the Museum of Non-Objective Painting organized an exhibition of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy's art. Moholy-Nagy was a painter, photographer, and professor at the Bauhaus School from 1923–28, and the exhibition, In Memoriam László Moholy-Nagy commemorated his life's work. Hilla Rebay wrote an essay for the exhibition catalogue; within the essay she wrote, "with devotion he fulfilled his vocation to bring enlightenment to others, not only as a painter, but also as a person dedicated to space control of any kind. . . . ” Here she emphasized his contributions to the field and to others in the field.
