Black White and Gray

László Moholy-Nagy, one of the leading figures in the Bauhaus, made this short film based on the shadow patterns of his Light-Space Modulator, an early kinetic sculpture consisting of a variety of curved objects in a carefully choreographed cycle of movements. Created in 1930, the film was originally planned as the sixth and final part of a much longer work depicting the new space-time. (Description courtesy of SFMoma)
