Moholy-Nagy\u2019s second contribution within the series (he also wrote Painting, Photography, Film, volume 8) searches \u201cfor the closest connection between art, science and technology by aiming for the training of finer sensory perception.\u201d<br><br>Available in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bauhaus<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\">-Shop<\/a> or directly from the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lars-mueller-publishers.com\/material-architecture\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/www.lars-mueller-publishers.com\/material-architecture\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">publishers<\/a>.<br><br>Please ask our colleagues in the <a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Bauhaus<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\" data-type=\"link\" data-id=\"https:\/\/bauhaus-shop.de\/en\">-Shop<\/a> for prices and availability.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":2067,"parent":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"class_list":["post-3025","publication","type-publication","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"acf":{"seo_titel":"","keywords":"","noindex":false,"redirect":"","short_url":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/3025","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/publication"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/13"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/3025\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":24680,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/publication\/3025\/revisions\/24680"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bauhaus.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3025"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
