Bauhausfotografie (Bauhaus Fotografie / Photography), 1983

HERZOGENRATH, Wolf (editor)

Documents the photography of The Bauhaus School, one of the most influential art and design schools in the 20th century. The Bauhaus School existed in three cities: Weimar (1919-1925), Dessau (1925’s-1932) and Berlin (1932’s-1933), where it eventually closed due to political pressure from the Nazis. Its overarching vision was to put art in contact with everyday life. The Bauhaus presented a new academic approach by replacing the traditional teacher-student model with the idea of a community or union of artists working together for a unified purpose.
