Karl Blossfeldt :: Bryonia alba (White bryony, with leaf) B, 1920′s. Pinakothek der Moderne, München / src: Michael Hoppen Gallery

“From 1898-1932, Blossfeldt taught sculpture based on natural plant forms at the Royal School of the Museum of Decorative Arts (now the Hochschule für Bildende Künste) in Berlin. In his lifetime Blossfeldt’s work gained praise and support from critics such as Walter Benjamin, artists of the Neue Sachlichkeit (New Realism) and the Paris Surrealists. The words of Walter Benjamin repositioned the artist in modern art and photography and prior to publishing his photographic book in 1926, Blossfeldt was sent an invitation to exhibit his work at the Karl Nierendorf’s gallery.” 

I want this one moment. It’s what I want in a relationship… which might explain why I am single now. Ha ha.
