An archival film made by Arnold Bittleman and Carl Howard. Produced by Educational Communications, NY (1969).

The genesis of To Open Eyes: A Film on Josef Albers developed from Arnold Bittleman’s appreciation for Albers while Bittleman was a student at Yale University in the 1960s.

Wanting to preserve Albers’s teaching method —learning by doing—Bittleman set out with filmmaker and editor Carl Howard to make a visual record of Albers teaching students how to see and use color as a visual grammar.
