Exhibition: Through a Bauhaus Lens: Edith Tudor-Hart and Isokon

To celebrate the 90th anniversary of the opening of the Isokon Flats, the Isokon Gallery in Hampstead is pleased to announce Through a Bauhaus Lens: Edith Tudor-Hart and Isokon, an exhibition of previously unseen 1933–4 photographs by the Viennese, Bauhaus-trained photographer Edith Tudor-Hart (until November 2025)

Details are at: https://isokongallery.org/blogs/exhibitions/through-a-bauhaus-lens-edith-tudor-hart-and-isokon and there is a fascinating introduction/overview short film on the website there – including a discussion with Charlotte Philby whose novel “Edith and Kim” tells the extraordinary life-story of Edith Tudor Hart.

There’s also a great essay (with some of Edith’s iconic 1930s photographs) on Tate Etc. https://www.tate.org.uk/tate-etc/issue-46-summer-2019/lives-artists-edith-tudor-hart-great-aunt-spy-peter-stephan-jungk
