The Mechanical Ballet

[@ethy_bates_art]

Oddly no mention of Kurt Schmidt in the description, who came up with the Mechanical Ballet at the Bauhaus along with Georg Teltscher and Wilhelm Bogler under Oskar Schlemmer in 1923. Not to be confused with Ballet Mécanique, the 1924 dada art film directed by Fernand Leger - who later saw Schlemmer's Triadic Ballet in Paris and loved it!
