Good show as always.
Another interesting Bauhaus weaver was Gunta Stölzl. She was one of the weaving workshop masters - I believe the only woman in the Bauhaus with that title. There isn't as much info on her as some of the other Bauhauslers, such as Anni Albers, partly I believe becuase she when to Switzerland as a refugee not the USA and that most if not all info on her is non-English. The two books and interview articles that I have by or about her are all in German. I am not sure if she even spoke English. The only extensive English language material I've run across is the Bauhaus Textiles book.
