Description

Discover the fascinating world of Bauhaus, the most influential art school of the 20th century, and its lasting impact on modern culture. From architecture and art to design, fashion, film and photography, the Bauhaus revolutionized interdisciplinary practices and inspired generations of artists around the world. This community of like-minded individuals generated an enormous concentration of artistic energy and continues to shape the modern aesthetic we know today.

This volume, curated by respected curator Mateo Kries of the Vitra Design Museum, presents impactful images of architecture, art, objects, graphic design and fashion from the last 100 years, revealing the enduring modernity of the Bauhaus style. With insightful text, this book offers new perspectives and surprising ideas, inspiring designers of interiors, furniture, consumer products, fashion and architecture.

In 2001 he co-founded the DESIGNMAI festival in Berlin, in 2006 he became the chief curator of the Vitra Design Museum in Weil am Rhein, and since 2011 he has been the museum's director. During his tenure at the Vitra Design Museum, Kries was responsible for many highly acclaimed projects, including exhibitions on Bauhaus, African design and figures such as Le Corbusier, Alvar Aalto and many others. In 2010, Kries published the book Total Design, a critical analysis of the omnipresence of design as a contemporary practice. In 2019, he co-produced Atlas of Furniture Design, the most comprehensive book on furniture design ever published. Kries holds a doctorate in art history from Humboldt University Berlin.
