Bauhaus 1919-1933: Workshops for Modernity

摘要

Twenty-some Bauhaus exhibitions took place last year: in France, Italy, Poland, Israel, Germany, and the United States. Germany housed the largest number; there, 2009 was officially styled "the Bauhaus year," and German governments and Bauhaus-related museums and foundations subsidized celebrations of the ninetieth anniversary of the founding of the school. Some of these shows focused on individual teachers or students: the Kunst-haus in Apolda on Lyonel Feininger and Laszlo Moholy-Nagy, the Stadtische Museum in Jena on Vasily Kandinsky, the Schlossmuseum in Gotha on Marianne Brandt and Wolfgang Tumpel.
