About László Moholy-Nagy
1895-1946
László Moholy-Nagy was born on 20 July 1895 in Bácsborsód, today Hungary. He was a Hungarian-US painter who was a professor in the Bauhaus school between 1923 and 1928.
László Moholy-Nagy was devoted to non-representational painting. He was fascinated by light and its refraction, fixation and reflection. His artist friends included Kurt Schwitters, Theo van Doesburg, and Lazlar El Lissitzky. His work was strongly influenced by the De Stijl movement, Constructivism and Merz art.
The artist died in Chicago on 24 November 1946.
Term for paintings and sculptures that are detached from the representational depiction, which spread throughout the entire western and parts of the eastern world from around 1910 onwards in ever new stylistic variations. The Russian painter Wassily Kandinsky, born in 1866, is considered the founder of abstract art. Other important artists of abstract art are K.S. Malewitsch, Piet Mondrian, and others.

Giclée = derived from the French verb gicler "to squirt, spurt".
The giclée method is a digital printing process. It is a high-resolution, large-format printout on an inkjet printer with special different-coloured dye- or pigment-based inks (usually six to twelve). The colours are fade-proof, i.e. resistant to harmful UV light. They have a high richness of nuance, contrast and saturation.
The giclée process is suitable for art canvases, handmade and watercolour paper as well as for silk.
