Detailed information

Product detailed description

Bauhaus: A Modernist Legacy places the legendary German art and design school founded in 1919 into its social and historical context. Though shuttered by the Nazis in 1933 after just fourteen years, the Bauhaus left an indelible mark on global design, architecture, and art education.

Frank Whitford traces the ideas and teaching methods that defined the school’s pioneering curriculum. He examines the daily lives of students and the practices of master teachers—Paul Klee, Josef Albers, Wassily Kandinsky, and others—revealing how their experiments in form, color, and materials revolutionized modern aesthetics.

Profusely illustrated with period photographs, student works, and archival documents, this volume remains the most approachable and visually engaging introduction to arguably the most significant design movement of the past century.
