MS. HEYMANN.

1910s, 1920s, Designers, The East, Women

Margarete Heymann—Bauhaus bad girl—unhappily left the school after one year.
She appealed to founder Martin Gropius for permission to study ceramics. Bauhaus/Gropius strongly encouraged women to study textiles and most did.
But Heymann refused, rocking the Bauhaus boat.

Thanks to Carl Williamson for sharing this portrait. So so hot & cool!!!!

The work won’t be in the MoMa show unfortunately. It was nice of the times to shed some light on her though. I guess she actually kind of is out of the Bauhaus history books!
