Bauhaus

Josef Albers, Goldrosa (1926)

. Common term for the Staatliches Bauhaus,
. School in Germany that combined crafts and the fine arts,
. It operated from 1919 to 1933.
. Founded by Walter Gropius.
. The name Bauhaus stems from the German words for "to build" and "house."
. Ironically, despite its name and the fact its founder was an architect, the Bauhaus did not have an architecture department for the first several years of its existence.
. The tyle became one of the most influential currents in Modernist architecture and modern design.
. The Bauhaus had a profound influence upon subsequent developments in art, architecture, graphic design, interior design, industrial design and typography.
. The school existed in three German cities (Weimar from 1919 to 1925, Dessau from 1925 to 1932, Berlin from 1932 to 1933), under three different architect-directors (Walter Gropius from 1919 to 1927, Hannes Meyer from 1928 to 1930, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe from 1930 to 1933).
. The changes of venue and leadership resulted in a constant shifting of focus, technique, instructors, and politics.
