Laszlo Maholy-Nagy, born Laszlo Weisz, was a Hungarian artist, known for his involvement in the Bauhaus. Maholy-Nagy grew up in a Jewish-Hungarian family in the town of Mohol, after which he derived the name “Maholy”. “Nagy” was derived from the surname of his mother’s friend.

Maholy-Nagy studied law in Budapest before serving in World War I. During the war he survived a serious injury and was discharged in 1918. After being freed from his military duty, Maholy-Nagy began studying at the private art school of Robert Bereny, a Hungarian artist of the Fauve movement. Maholy-Nagy was also involved in activists and contributed to various journals in Hungary, in support of the Hungarian Soviet Republic.

During the early 1920s, Maholy-Nagy moved from Vienna to Berlin, where he became an instructor at the Bauhaus, proficient in such techniques as photography, typography, sculpture, painting, printmaking and industrial design. Maholy-Nagy did extensive work with photograms and wrote a book, “The New Vision, from Material to Architecture.” Maholy-Nagy also edited the avant-garde magazine, “International Revue I 10” from 1927 to 1929. Around the same time he left his teaching post at the Bauhaus to do stage design in Berlin.

Around 1935, Maholy-Nagy moved to England, where he helped to form a new circle of artists Hampstead, attempting to create an English version of the Bauhaus. The effort was unable to be funded, and Maholy-Nagy ended up moving to London where he did a number of jobs for the Imperial Airways and made a series of kinetic sculptures.

In 1937 Maholy-Nagy moved to Chicago to become the director of the New Bauhaus. Unfortunately the school only lasted for one year before losing funding and becoming the Institute of Design, and later the Illinois Institute of Technology. Maholy-Nagy died in Chicago in 1946. The work of Maholy-Nagy is now in important collections around the world. The art institute in Budapest was renamed in his honor as the Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design.
