The Resnick Center for Herbert Bayer Studies (The Bayer Center) is a new exhibition space and center for the study of art located on the Aspen Institute’s campus. Named after Herbert Bayer (1900–1985)—an influential modern artist and designer who worked at the Bauhaus before relocating to Aspen in 1946—the Bayer Center honors his interdisciplinary perspective by promoting an understanding of art and design through exhibitions and public programming.
