Annie Albers - Color Study (Blue and Reds)

Collection: Study Drawings
Poster Size: D

This 1970 colour study by Anni Albers was designed for a print that was never realised. Triangular motifs reflect the tension between order and chaos in nature’s crystalline structures, as well as Anni’s interest in Mexican culture. Inspired by her many visits to Mexico and her fascination with Mesoamerican forms, she also collected pre-Columbian artefacts and textiles.

Created in close collaboration with the Josef & Anni Albers Foundation to honour the legacy of one of the most influential figures in 20th-century Modernism.

 “In my own work, and in the things that I admire, I always find that it has to have some kind of almost drawing power, something that gets you back to look at it again and again...” — Anni Albers
