In 2018, Tate Modern presents this century's first major UK museum exhibition of the work of Anni Albers. One of the world's leading textile artists and a significant figure at the Bauhaus, Albers was influential but also under appreciated, making this full-scale retrospective a good opportunity to showcase her contribution to modern art and design. Like other women at Bauhaus, Albers was barred from becoming a painter so instead focused on textiles as her means of expression, rising to prominence with her exploration of the technical limits of hand-weaving. A pioneer in the field, she found used innovative processes to create art from woven fabric. This full-scale retrospective brings together the most important examples of her work, from small-scale creations to wall hangings.
