Dear media representatives,
Anni Albers (1899–1994) is one of the most important artists and designers of the 20th century. After training at the Bauhaus in Weimar, Dessau and Berlin, she emigrated to the United States in 1933, where she established herself as a weaver, textile designer and visual artist. In addition to her well-known signature pictorial weavings, Albers also devoted herself to developing new textiles for buildings and interiors, so-called ‘utilitarian’ or ‘serving objects’. Her innovative design principles and experimental approach to materials continue to inspire to this day.
From 7 November 2025 to 22 February 2026, the Zentrum Paul Klee will present the artist's first solo exhibition in Switzerland. The exhibition will feature works from all periods of her career, with a special focus on her architectural interventions, thus highlighting the connection between art, textiles and architecture, between building and weaving in Anni Albers' work.
We cordially invite you to the media preview with curators Fabienne Eggelhöfer, Zentrum Paul Klee, Bern, and Brenda Danilowitz, Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, Bethany, CT, on Wednesday, 5 November 2025 at 10:00 at the Zentrum Paul Klee.
