首部理查德·菲利波夫斯基 monograph 问世：连接包豪斯与美国中期现代主义的巨匠终获瞩目

理查德·菲利波夫斯基（1923-2008）是美国现代主义史上最具天赋的博学者之一。无论是绘画、雕塑，还是家具与珠宝设计，他都发展出一种丰茂而抽象、且惊人一致的视觉语言，使其跻身二十世纪中期艺术与设计领域的杰出人物之列。

在芝加哥设计学院（前身为新包豪斯）求学期间，他迅速成为创始人拉兹洛·莫霍利-纳吉的得意门生——这位大师在其著作《运动中的视觉》（1947）中特别收录了菲利波夫斯基的多件作品；菲利波夫斯基也是莫霍利-纳吉唯一邀请加入教职的学生，使他得以与沃尔特·格罗皮乌斯和马塞尔·布鲁尔并肩执教。受格罗皮乌斯聘请，他在哈佛大学开发了设计基础课程（该课程至今仍是设计教学的基石），后转赴麻省理工学院执教三十余载，直至1988年荣休。

由莫霍利-纳吉之女哈图拉作序的《理查德·菲利波夫斯基：超越包豪斯的艺术与设计》是这位大师的首部专著。因其素来淡泊名利，不慕媒体关注，他生涯中跨媒介创作的独特作品长期由私人收藏。如今通过菲利波夫斯基家族的努力及设计学者的关注——多位学者在书中撰文论述其平面绘画、雕塑、家具作品及设计史地位——这些杰作正得以呈现于新一代爱好者眼前。本书以丰厚文献记录了一段即将重归现代主义经典谱系的艺术生涯。

 

In this first monograph of Richard Filipowski, a major figure bridging the Bauhaus and American midcentury modernism finally gets his due.

Richard Filipowski (1923-2008) was among the most gifted polymaths in the annals of American modernism. Whether as a painter, sculptor, or designer of furniture and jewelry, Filipowski developed a lush, abstract, and amazingly consistent visual language that marks him among the finest figures of midcentury art and design.

As a student at the Institute of Design (formerly the New Bauhaus) in Chicago, he quickly became a protégé of founder László Moholy-Nagy, who featured several of Filipowski's works in his seminal text Vision in Motion (1947); Filipowski was the only student Moholy-Nagy called upon to join the faculty, where he taught alongside Walter Gropius and Marcel Breuer. Recruited by Gropius to develop a course in design fundamentals at Harvard, which remains a cornerstone of design pedagogy to this day, he would move to MIT where he taught for more than three decades, until his retirement in 1988.

With a foreword by László Moholy-Nagy's daughter Hattula, ?Richard Filipowski: Art and Design Beyond the Bauhaus? is the first monograph of this master, who over the course of his career created a unique body of work in diverse media that has largely, until recently, been held in private collections due to his relative lack of compulsion to seek media attention or worldly rewards. But now through the efforts of the Filipowski family and new attention by design scholars--several of whom contribute essays here on Filipowski's graphic and painted works, sculpture, furniture, and position in design history--the work is being revealed to a new generation of aficionados. Richard Filipowski is a rich document of a life and career that is poised to reenter the canon of modernism.
