Sedat Pakay's 2006 film is the first documentary to present in tandem the lives of these two artistic pioneers of twentieth-century Modernism. Produced in close association with The Josef and Anni Albers Foundation, Josef and Anni Albers: Art is Everywhere includes rare footage of Josef and Anni Albers and features a number of unprecedented interviews with people significant in both of the Alberses' lives. Robert Rauschenberg, Sidney Janis, Denise Rene, John Szarkowski, John Cohen, and architect Philip Johnson, who was instrumental in arranging for the Alberses' passage to the US in 1933 as refugees of Nazi Germany, are among the many personal friends and colleagues interviewed in the documentary who attest to the legacy and lasting importance of the Alberses' work.
