About Anni Albers

Anni Albers was a German-Jewish visual artist and printmaker. A leading textile artist of the 20th century, she is credited with blurring the lines between traditional craft and art. Born in Berlin in 1899, Fleischmann began her studies under impressionist painter Martin Brandenburg from 1916 to 1919. She briefly attended the Kunstgewerbeschule in Hamburg in 1919. She later enrolled at the Bauhaus, an avant-garde art and architecture school founded by Walter Gropius in Weimar in 1922. At Bauhaus, she began exploring weaving after facing restrictions in other disciplines due to gender biases at the institution.
