Műhely

Műhely (Workshop; or 'little Bauhaus'). Sándor Bortnyik, Hungarian painter and graphic designer, moved to Weimar in 1922 where he was affiliated to Bauhaus. After returning to Hungary he founded a school of applied graphic art in Budapest in 1928 with curriculum inspired by the Bauhaus principles. The tutors included Iván Hevesy (art history, film), Kálmán Kovács (stage design), Farkas Molnár (architecture), Pál Ligeti ('construction', cultural history), and himself (painting, graphic design, advertising design). The school existed until 1938. Victor Vasarely was among its students.
