Johannes Itten 1888 - 1967

i’m really drawn to the vorkurs (the bauhaus preliminary course), what i know of it so far at least. fingers crossed i’m hoping to get hold of a couple of itten’s books.

ooh i found me a reference syllabus of sorts: Course Schedule - California College of the Arts. gives a decent overview of what bases should be covered.

and on a slight tangent, i’m working on a better way of organising all this d.i.y.a.s. stuff, since there are posts i want to expand on over time. i’m going to set up some pages with a more traditional website structure. when i have time.

how much does this speak to me? plus it has absolutely that air of imminent collapse that i felt rachael whiteread’s boxes lacked.
