<p>As part of the visual and technical experimentation that characterized the Bauhaus, the German design school where he taught, Moholy-Nagy made cameraless photographs, or "photograms," by placing objects on a sheet of photographic paper and exposing it to light. He used the technique to make abstract compositions with spatial, tonal, and gestural qualities that challenged traditional modes of representation.<br />

<p>Moholy-Nagy was a central figure at the Bauhaus in Weimar and Dessau from 1923 to 1928 and at the New Bauhaus (later the Institute of Design) in Chicago from 1937 until his death. Both as an artist and as an educator, Moholy-Nagy used photography as a means of challenging conventions of visual perception and representation. Among the methods he advocated to promote the "new vision" was the cameraless photograph or photogram – at once the most direct and the most oblique of translations from object to photograph. Moholy-Nagy made this abstract image by resting commonplace objects on a sheet of photographic paper and exposing it to light.<br />
