Summer on the Rhône: first photograms
On holiday with Lucia on the Rhône, László learned from her to make photograms on light-sensitive paper — photography became one of his main pursuits, with his wife at first his technical guide. That summer he also began sketching ideas for what would become the Light-Space Modulator.

Show at Der Sturm; meeting Gropius
At a joint exhibition with his fellow Hungarian Peter Laszlo Peri at Der Sturm, László met Walter Gropius. Herwarth Walden showed his works alongside Peri's in 1922–1924.
1923
Gropius brings him to the Bauhaus
László took over Johannes Itten's role co-teaching the foundation course with Josef Albers and replaced Paul Klee as head of the metal workshop. This effectively ended the school's Expressionist leanings and moved it back towards its original aims of design and integration with industry. Other accounts count Albers among his students.
