It also contains new translations of the original texts: in Mandarin, Russian, Hungarian and Spanish.

Lazlo Moholy-Nagy (1895 -1946) is one of the central figures of the European avant-garde. His move from Budapest through Vienna to Berlin, his call to the Bauhaus in Weimar/Dessau by Gropius in 1923, his flight from the Nazis first to the Netherlands, then to London, and finally to Chicago, where he became director of the "New Bauhaus" and founded the "School of Design", all these stations set the horizon for his poly-artistic research.
