with an introduction by werner möller on saturday november 29, 2025, 4pm

on the occasion of bauhaus dessau's centenary, the exhibition series "einblicke" will highlight the exhibition "positionen der konkreten und konstruktiven kunst" realized in 1999 by edition & galerie hoffmann in collaboration with the bauhaus dessau foundation.

as a marker of shared artistic and political goals, and due to the historical significance of the bauhaus's teachings for the gallery's program, edition & galerie hoffmann was invited to show 26 positions on site in the historic bauhaus dessau building.

werner möller, director of the reallabor zekiwa zeitz at the bauhaus dessau today, contextualized the exhibited artistic positions then as part of an accompanying publication, with reference to the “meistermappe” published by the bauhaus in 1923. möller will open the exhibition on november 29, 2025 with an introduction.

an online viewing room contextualizing the realization of “positionen der konkreten und konstruktiven kunst” by edition & galerie hoffmann in 1999 accompanies "einblicke" online.
