Art History Lecture – Bauhaus by Anne Anderson
After the First World War, the Bauhaus set out to create modern, functional design for a new society. Inspired by the clean lines of modern industry, it promoted light-filled , uncluttered buildings and everyday objects free from unnecessary decoration. Artists like Kandinsky and Klee and developed colour theory, while Marcel Breur pioneered tubular-steel furniture and mass-production ideas.
With the rise of facism, many Bauhaus teachers emigrated to the US, where their ideas shaped the International Style that dominated architecture until the 1970s.
