Reinhold Rossig

“One of the most prolific [letter] designers at the Bauhaus, Rossig originally trained as a civil engineer before coming to Dessau in 1929 to focus on fine-art painting and architecture. He studied a wide variety of disciplines under Josef Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Joost Schmidt, and Alfred Arndt. He was jailed by the Nazi regime because of his ties to the communist party and later worked as an architect in his native Germany, while continuing to pursue fine art painting and graphics.” [Adobe]
