Work of the Camouflage Class
Synopsis
In December 1941 shortly after the United States entered World War II, Chicago’s mayor, Edward Kelly, appointed Moholy-Nagy to a committee to investigate the possibilities of camouflaging important landmarks and potential targets. György Kepes taught a certified course in camouflage at the school in the fall of 1942. The exercises and solutions were presented in an exhibition that year. The film footage begins with natural examples of camouflage in the animal world and then presents examples of military use in different settings. Various structural solutions, such as painted patterns that confuse contours, textures and hiding buildings and equipment such as train cars and airplanes beneath structures covered by netting are shown.

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
