Philipp Tolziner was one of the seven Bauhaus students that followed their director into his voluntary exile to Moscow. While Meyer and student Bela Scheffler, who spoke fluently Russian, were in Moscow to arrange the travelling visa, Tolziner and his friends waited in Meyer's empty house in Berlin. A soviet journalist finally helped them to find their way and in February 1931 they arrived in Moscow.
