Information

In the foreground there is a functionalist-style Red Cross clinic, with typically Bauhaus-designed chairs and an official / mannequin. On the left side an enigmatic figure stands out while, coming out of the bruised background where a fortress seems to stand, an enormous hand hangs on the scene. The work comes from the archive of the architect Hubert Hoffmann (Berlin 1904 - Graz 1999), also a student at the Bauhaus, and subsequently a very active organizer and collaborator of various exhibitions starting from the famous "22 berliner bauhäusler stellen aus" (1950) . This collage is part of the works that Hoffmann collected and preserved for the various exhibitions on the Bauhaus.
