Description

In a short period of 14 years between two world wars, the Bauhaus school of art and design in Germany changed the face of modernity. With utopian ideas for the future, the school developed a groundbreaking fusion of fine arts, craftsmanship, and technology, which it applied to media and practices, from film and theater to sculpture and ceramics. This popular reference, compiled in collaboration with the Bauhaus-Archiv/Museum für Gestaltung in Berlin, includes the largest collection of Bauhaus history. Approximately 575 illustrations, including architectural plans, studies, photographs, sketches, and models, document not only the realized projects but also the core principles and personalities of this idealized creative community through its three successive locations in Weimar, Dessau, and Berlin. From spontaneous snapshots of group gymnastics to designs led by Paul Klee, the collection exudes the colors, materials, and geometry that make up Bauhaus's vision for a "total" work of art. This is a definitive reference on the energy and rigor of Bauhaus, not only as a revolutionary movement in Modernism but also as an example of art education, where creative expression and pioneering ideas lead to creations that are simultaneously functional and beautiful. The functional edition includes artists such as Josef Albers, Marianne Brandt, Walter Gropius, Gertrud Grunow, and Paul Klee.
