Lucia Moholy – Exposures
Overview
Intro
Lucia Moholy (1894-1989) is one of the most internationally renowned and important female photographers of the 20th century.
Lucia Moholy (1894-1989) is one of the most internationally renowned and important photographers of the 20th century. Her architectural photographs and portraits from her years at the Bauhaus in Dessau became icons in the history of photography and continue to shape the perception of this institution to this day. However, Moholy was not only a photographer, but also an art historian, critic, writer and archivist; she described herself as a "documentarian" and made a name for herself in the field of information science.
The exhibition Lucia Moholy - Exposures shows for the first time the wide range of her work from the 1910s to the 1970s: The photographic work is presented together with numerous documents, some of them newly discovered, which shed light on Moholy's role in the avant-garde of the interwar period as well as her youth in Prague, her editorial work in Germany, her work as a portraitist in London and her involvement with early microfilm technology in England and Turkey. Last but not least, the exhibition invites visitors to encounter Lucia Moholy in the context of Zurich, where she spent the last thirty years of her life. During this time, she also cultivated a relationship with the then still young Fotostiftung, where a large collection of her photographs can be found today.
