Anni Albers

This season we have added a selection of stunning new woven fabrics and wallpapers to the existing designs within the collection. The Anni Albers collection is designed in association with the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation. 

One of the most influential textile artists of the 20th century, Anni Albers, began her career at the Bauhaus, where – prevented from studying other disciplines as a woman – she took up weaving under the tutelage of Gunta Stölz. This kickstarted a lifelong passion for the tactile and aesthetic possibilities of textiles. This passion led Anni to move to the US, where she became the first textile artist to be honoured with a show at the Museum of Modern Art – and the most famous weaver of the modern age.
