Moholy-Nagy, EM1, EM2, and EM3 (Telephone Pictures)
[Steven] We're in the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York at an exhibition devoted to the work of the great Hungarian Avant garde artist Laszlo Moholy-Nagy.
And we're looking at three enamel images.
I can't call them paintings, I can't call the sculptures.
They're not quite science.
[Elizabeth] These are often referred to as the telephone pictures.
Moholy-Nagy claimed that he created these entirely without touching them or even seeing them.
[Steven] When we think about painting the hand of the artist is almost like their signature.
It is their presence in the object.
So what does it mean to create a work of art where there's a distance.
[Elizabeth] This is a moment when artists are trying to rethink what it is to be an artist and part of that is to think of art as completely a product of the mind and the eye and not at all having to do with the individual artist's hand.
This is presented almost like a display in a store.
[Steven] So this is an inexpensive mechanical process.
[Elizabeth] And the reason he called them telephone pictures is that he sat down with craft paper and plotted out how these pictures should look what color should be in what square called up a technician in a factory who had the same graph paper and other modern technology.
And the technician was able to plot out the same squares and then manufacture the pictures in three different sizes.
[Steven] So, he's dissolving the distinction between the fine artist and the engineer.
[Elizabeth] And one of the major projects of the Bauhaus the institution to which Moholy-Nagy is most closely linked was that it would dissolve what the founder of the Bauhaus Walter Gropius called.
The arrogant distinction between the craftsman and the artist.
And when Moholy-Nagy comes in in 1923, the Bauhaus is in the midst of a big change away from craft and towards technology.
The new slogan is "Art and technology, a new unity".
And Moholy-Nagy is brought in as the embodiment of this.
[Steven] You do see the scientific rigor.
And although the image itself seems very simple this white field with two black stripes a red stripe, a yellow bar and then something a little bit more complicated perhaps either.
A yellow horizontal that has been outlined in red, or yellow in front of red.
He's creating complex spaces what is in back of what.
What is in front of what are all of these elements the same size but further away dissecting the queues that we've learned over the 500 years since the Renaissance and how we depict an image on a flat surface.
[Elizabeth] And right at the same time Moholy-Nagy is creating paintings that are exploring some of the same problems.
How are we to orient ourselves in relation to this picture is one of the questions I think it poses to us.
Is this a space of imagination is it a representation or is it just something flat?
Is it an industrial object is it a picture to have in your home is it something to help you contemplate a new utopia that hasn't yet been imaged but Moholy-Nagy was very interested in himself~?
All of these things I think are in these pictures.
[Steven] Because it's not paint that's been applied to the surface most of the surface is as deep as everything else.
There is a uniformity to the depth of each color.
One is not so much on top of the other with the possible exception of the yellow which seems to bold out and actually write physically on top of the red.
[Elizabeth] Which I wonder is that communicated in the telephone conversation or is that a quirk of this technology because after all.
It is still somebody putting bits of pigment onto a surface and it's heated up so it'll stay for forever but beyond that it's a lot like painting in some way still.
[Steven] Except at the distance of a telephone call.
