A comprehensive overview of Bauhaus architecture and the environment in which the movement began. Magdalena Droste traces the movement in art and architecture via the work of its most important proponents: Walter Gropius, Marcel Breuer, Vassily Kandinsky, and Paul Klee. Readers interested in architecture and art from the early twentieth century would would find the so-called "Russian Bauhaus," Vkhutemas, intriguing as well.
Excellent. Given the fact that it only costs around 10€ :-).
gotta have this one for my job ;)
The photographs were the only interesting thing about this book. I felt that there was no flow and the translation was pretty bad. I had to read this for my German Culture in the Wiemar Republic class and there is no other reason to read this unless its for class.
Having read this book alongside other histories of the Bauhaus, I felt that this book managed to be very complete in its historical oversight while still being concise. The pictures are also wonderful, and the price is great!
A photo book of one of the most creative school of design that start teaching in Germany and contributed to define some design basis to current companies like Apple.
The design and stories of the artists from the Bauhaus era make my heart swell. This text was IT for me in college.
