- Originally aired on Zoom, Thursday, May 14th.
We invite you to pour a cocktail and join us on Zoom for a lecture with artist Robert Gregson on Anni and Josef Albers, two members of the Bauhaus art movement who would go on to become leading pioneers of 20th-century modernism. During his talk Gregson will give insight into these artists’ influence on the art world at large, and share his own personal recollection of his interactions with the couple.
The Albers’s would formulate their philosophy for art and life around Bauhaus: living simply, shedding excess, and making every decision a purposeful aesthetic choice.
Robert Gregson received his MFA from the Art Institute of Chicago. He has worked at the renowned Sidney Jani Gallery in New York, installing exhibits by Josef Albers, Claes Oldenburg, Ellsworth Kelly, Marisol, and others. His own work has been exhibited in Chicago, New York, and Washington, D.C. as well as the Northeast. In 2014, the NBMAA presented his interactive works in Space to Maneuver.

I REALLY enjoyed this. Thank you.
Very nice lecture, I learned a lot -- thank you!
(23:34) "tablecloths or curtains" ?? Quel horreur!
They're BEAUTIFUL! They're wall hangings! ... a tablecloth is something you spill food and wine onto.
(45:45) Oh dear God!! THE worst house design!! We moved to one in 1972, I was 15, I walked in through the front door (you can barely get in the door without falling up or down the stairs) and must immediately choose: "Up or Down?" ... I called it a "divorce house." (HORRIBLE Feng Shui). I'm glad they liked theirs. I think they're hideous. (But theirs looks MUCH nicer than ours).
Lisa Williams talks as though she's 10 years old. I find this rather shocking for an adult.
Too much stuttering. This is very basic. This is not interesting nor informative. To be honest this is awful. Good luck to you.
