Drie figuren
1931
Oskar Schlemmer, a master of the famous Bauhaus school, loved turning humans into geometric puzzles. In this 1931 sketch, three stiff, mannequin-like figures stand in profile, their bodies reduced to simple cylinders and curves with a cool, detached elegance. Notice the date scribbled in the bottom corner—August 14, 1931—capturing a moment when the artist was deeply obsessed with the relationship between the human body and architectural space. It looks like a fashion sketch for elegant robots from the future, blending art with mechanical precision.
