Geniuses and total work of art
The most famous art school of modern times
Between two world wars, in just 14 years, the Bauhaus changed modern times. The art and design school, guided by utopian ideals, brought together art, craft, and technology, and applied this holistic concept to painting, sculpture, design, building, film, photography, textile design, pottery, theatre, and installations.
The group of artists with outward projection was at the same time a very close personal community. The school was founded by Walter Gropius (1883-1969) and among its members were Josef and Anni Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, Paul Klee, Oskar Schlemmer, Gunta Stölzl, Marianne Brandt, and Ludwig Mies van der Rohe. In the three consecutive locations of the school, in Weimar, Dessau, and Berlin, there was an intense creative exchange between students and teachers, who, although cultivating different styles and artistic preferences, were united by their idealism and their search for a "total work of art."
This volume celebrates the innovative strength of the Bauhaus movement, which propelled modern times with its avant-garde ideas and championed total freedom of artistic expression and the combination of usefulness and beauty in art education.
