From 1946 through the 1970s, the photography department at Chicago’s Institute of Design was one of the most important and avant-garde photography programs in America.

Description

TheInstitute of Design, which was founded in 1937 in Chicago by Laszlo Moholy-Nagy to continue the principles of the German Bauhaus, offered an experimental atmosphere that encouraged exploration of the interconnectedness of art, design, and architecture and of the various art media. Starting in the 1950s, in order to draw attention to their work, the photography students banded together to publish portfolios.
