Bauhaus: a graphic novel.
So much dependence on chance? Bauhaus documented by Lucia Moholy-Nagy's photographs.
pickShort book about composition in modern art: line, color, mouvement. It includes notes and drawings from the artist when he was a teacher at the Bauhaus' school of art.
pickThe Bauhaus school of design was founded 100 year ago in 1919 (I did the maths), and this book is an introduction to the people, products and politics, the art and the architecture that characterised the Bauhaus, summarised in 100 short essays, each subject illustrated. Founded and developed upon socialist ideals, the Bauhaus inevitably ran foul of the Nazis and closed before WWII, by which time its influence had spread across the world. 👇🏼
So, no mention of the band Bauhaus, yet, against expectation, a mention of David Bowie! How pleasingly ubiquitous he is. Also mentioned are New Order, and the striking video they produced for the song "True Faith". As soon as I saw the costumes for the Bauhaus school's "Triadic Ballet" productions, I groked the influence on the costumes used in the video ?
I'd love a Wassily chair, but at over £2000 for a newly manufactured model, I don't think I'll be getting one!
Not sure about the impractical balaclava, though.
so-so
