Bauhaus Exhibition Postcard — Farkas Molnár, 1923
Farkas Molnár · Bauhaus exhibition postcard, Weimar, 1923
What it is
Farkas Molnár’s typographic design for the same 1923 Bauhaus exhibition postcard series.
Why it matters
The Bauhaus commissioned the same small, cheap format from multiple students and masters — a whole design philosophy tested at postcard scale before it scaled up.
What to notice
A different geometric logic than the Moholy-Nagy card alongside it — the same brief, genuinely different answers.
One school, testing itself against itself.
