Bauhaus and Bold Colors – its Harold Krisel!

if you read my blog and follow my work – i love 4 things.  Robots, color, mid century art and design and the bauhaus.  always on the hunt for new inspiration, i came across Harold Krisel, who studied at the New Bauhas and made awesome use of color.

"The Bauhaus believes the machine to be our modern medium of design and seeks to come to terms with it." Masters of World Architecture: Walter Gropius

i went to a library sale a few weeks ago, and have been poring through a modest pile of great vintage books. i got an incredible copy of the Foundation Trilogy by Isaac Asimov (ach! is the current state of the world economy some sort of Seldon Crisis?), 3 great architecture books about Eric Mendelsohn, Walter Gropius, and Eero Saarinen (haven't started this one yet!) and a pile of others yet to be explored... Hey! are those slobots next to 1930's German architecture! i KNEW it! FYI, you can get a print of this image in my etsy shop: http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25500472
