Ten emblematic signs: a reflection on ninety years of Bauhaus

Authors

Abstract

On April 12, 2009 it was ninety years since Walter Gropius was named Dean of the Art School and the Arts and Crafts School, located in Weimar. Following a proposal by the architect, these two schools were merged to form the Stattliche Bauhaus. The international celebration of this act, which took place first in Berlin and later in New York, was an exhibition entitled «Bauhaus, a conceptual model», still considered the most complete Bauhaus exhibition to date. The anniversary of this event moved us to carry out a review of ten works of the Modern Movement, which we consider to
be emblematic and representative items of the Bauhaus production.
