Bauhaus

The Bauhaus (1919-33) is the most famous school of architecture, design and craftsmanship of modern times. It helped establish a relationship between design and industry. 'Bauhaus' became synonymous with rationalised, sharp-edged, machine-based style. This programme looks at the development of the Bauhaus and at key figures involved in it, as well as setting its history in the context of the political unrest and economic chaos of the Weimar Republic.
