I did Industial Design with Gerard Herbst in 1963 and found him a genuine teacher in that he opened the minds of his students and allowed them to freely create. For me it was one of the most refreshing experiences of my life and has marked me to this day. Ken Shepherd.
Sitting with Gerard at my parents dinner table on Friday night, listening to his stories about his time at the Bauhaus and his life during the Nazi regime.. What a brave, sensitive and compassionate man.
