Great read! Thank you. I’d like to submit Gunta Stolzl for your list, I just read a fascinating book of her life and work, told through her correspondence.

Oh thank you Stacey - I will definitely be looking into that book! She was on my list already so that will be an excellent resource!

Oh yay! The book was “Gunta Stolzl: Bauhaus Master” from the MoMA press. Unfortunately it’s pricey to buy used but luckily my local library has a copy.

Ah thank you! I just joined a local university library so I will see if it’s in their catalog!

What a wonderful series, Kelsey, and what an amazing artist. Thank you!

Some of your earlier posts inspired me to find Anni Albers' book "On Weaving" at my library, and it's breathtaking. I'm a knitter and poet rather than a weaver, and it's amazing (or not!) how many home truths her book contains about all kinds of making.

Oh, thank you! I am so glad you’ve enjoyed this and found it resonant. Anni Albers is a font of wisdom, isn’t she? I think I will have to buy a copy of her book to own forever, it’s just so good!
