Abstract: |
Hans Hildebrandt was a German art
historian and critic and Lily Uhlmann Hildebrandt, a glass painter, photographer, and
journalist. They were long active in Stuttgart, Germany, where their house was a
gathering place for artists, including Ida Kerkovius, Johannes Itten, and Oskar
Schlemmer. They formed an art collection that comprised works by Josef Albers, Alexander
Archipenko, Willi Baumeister, Hans Brühlmann, Lyonel Feiniger, Hannah Höch, Adolf
Hölzel, Johannes Itten, Ida Kerkovius, Paul Klee, Oskar Schlemmer, and Kurt Schwitters.
Their papers provide a comprehensive record of their life and work reflecting their
interests in modern art, architecture, and the decorative arts, as well as their close
friendships with leading painters and architects. The papers consist of personal and
professional correspondence, manuscripts, research notes, bibliographies, publications,
and photographs.
